Hand Hammered Man'en Era Oban JAPAN. Oban (10 Ryo), ND Man'en Era (ca. 1860-62). Emperor Komei. PCGS MS-62 Gold Shield. Fr-7; JNDA-09-10 (6); Bank of Japan-Vol. 4 # 91; JV-A7; Hartill-8.13; KM-C-24a.1. Weight: 113.51 gms. 134.7 x 81.03 mm. Mintage: 17,097 inclusive of both Type I and Type II. Type I, hand hammered crenellations with security edge. This attractive survivor is an example of the last hand-hammered Oban type produced in Japan and exhibits evenly spaced crenellations in five columns. The Kiri crest stamps that depict a Paulownia flower are bold with crisp details, and were subsequently shared by the machine struck type which also appears in this sale. The stamps on the reverse and the top Kiri stamp is the same as the obverse, while the lower two stamps differ slightly to that of the machine struck issue in this sale; while the small control marks in the lower left quadrant are in triangular formation. The ink signature, Goto Tenjo the hereditary controllers of the Kinza (gold mint), is nicely preserved though portions of the lower half of the inscription have worn away, adding character to this wholesome piece. The outer peripheries of the lower half of this example display lovely rich sunset hued patina and contribute to the pleasing appearance. These highly collectible issues compared to the machine struck issues appear on the market with much less frequency and are very desirable as a type. Estimate: $15,000 - $20,000.
