Pièce de 4 Mon 1763 ( 21 vagues )
diam: 2.8 cm
Poids: 6 grs





By 1863 the Tokugawa Shoguns were having serious political and financial difficulties.  Rather than dealing with the problems, they put a new legend on the 4 Mon coin that had been in circulation for almost 100 years. The new 4 Mon coins were called Bunkyuu Eihou. Bunkyuu refers to the era, and Eihou roughly translates as eternal cash.  Like the previous 4 Mon, eleven “waves” were featured on the reverse.   Alas the coins were far from eternal, the Tokugawa Shogunate collapsed within five years and the coins were soon replaced with modern struck coin.

COPPER COIN OF THE SHOGUNS OF JAPAN

JAPAN 1 MON (1636-1756)

This undated copper 1 Mon coin of Japan was minted in the mid 18th century, a time when the power of the Shoguns was at its peak.  It is in the traditional "cash coin" style featuring a round coin with a square center hole.  The round is said to represent heaven, while the square represents the earth, thus the coin is a perfect combination of heaven and earth.  A more realistic explanation is that because the coin was cast, the square center hole made it easier file off the casting flans. Either way, it is an inexpensive and historic coin from this important period of Japanese history.
