日本 駿河 五両判金 玩賞品 Hahn-1253 約81.5g 約84.8%

An intriguing fantasy not found in older reference books and probably struck at a later date. Goryoban roughly means 5 ryo plate, or five times a koban (which is 1 ryo). The obverse features a whirlwind stamp, characters meaning "Suruga," and a paulownia flower at the bottom. (Gold 84.88%, Silver 9.34%, Copper 5.86%) Weight 81.5g.
