Description

The listing, Vintage Japan Black Enamel Trinket Box Japanese Coin Dollar Yen has ended.

If you like unique items, this is the one for you! I think the Black enamel container is a trinket box, and it is smaller on the inside, (I tried diligently to capture a pic of the inside but could not provide one that was visible). It slides up and down the string and so does the lid. The lid does not have any hinging. It is authentic to the piece. There is a gold colored stamp, (fading), on the front and was told to me by my Korean friend it meant wealth/prosperity; I was unable to find, (via researching), and conclude it is just my friends opinion, not fact, as to it's meaning. I was able to confirm the Yen though! It is 65% copper, 35% zinc; a bit larger than our US nickel, (approx 22mm). The obverse side is a Rice Plant out of Water. The gear around the hole represents Industry. The reverse side is "Old Script". It is the only Japanese coin in circulation to lack Arabic numerals on either face. It was minted between 1949-1958. I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL COIN GRADER. The string it is on is original and should be treated gently, as this piece is over half a century old!

Please, serious bidders only.
Not responsible for buyers remorse as I do my best to provide good photos and detailed descriptions.
I cannot refund credits.

All Listia rules apply.

I ship item/s once I receive Listia approved address and payment in full; unless my disability, (MS), puts me down, but then I will ship within 7 days. (Please allow extra time for holidays). I am a good communicator so you will always know what is going on. I am willing to work with anyone providing the request is within reason.
Most my items ship free, but if I have to charge, it is very reasonable. I like to be treated fair and like to pass that on to my customers.

Thank you for looking, and please check out my other items and come back soon as I try to list something new daily.

Happy Bidding!

The coin is a 5 yen from 1974; these coins are considered to bring good luck.
