日本 金メッキ大判 玩賞品 約55.1g 金0%

A true fantasy in that this specimen is not listed in reference books, and appears to have been made, perhaps, in modern times. Shaped like a gold oban of monetary issue and styled the same as well with paulownia flowers / horizontal crenulations. The reverse is very smooth and unlike older official oban issues. Instead of maker's marks on the reverse, there are several different paulownia flower stamps that seem to be for decoration rather than confirmation. (Silver 100%) Weight 55.1g.
