Interesting fact

The 1 Bu (Mimasaka) ND (1750) coin from Mimasaka Province (Japanese feudal domains) made of Silver is a rare and valuable coin among collectors due to its historical significance and limited mintage. It was issued during the reign of Emperor Sakuramachi and was used as a means of currency in the Mimasaka Province, which was a small feudal domain located in what is now part of Okayama Prefecture in western Japan. The coin's design features a unique combination of Japanese characters and imagery, including the crest of the Mimasaka clan, which was the ruling family of the province at the time. Despite its age, some of these coins have been well-preserved and can still be found in good condition, making them highly sought after by collectors and historians.
