Summary edit
DescriptionShimasen - Dr. Luke Roberts 05.jpg |
English: This Kan'ei Tsuuhou is based on the bunsen type of Japanese coin first minted in 1668. However, the 'Bun' character on the back is behind the Tsuu character on the right, rather than behind the Kan which is the way in the original. It is as if the reverse had been rotated 90 degrees clockwise. This thought is interesting because even the center squares of the front and back are not well aligned, and there may have been something in the manufacturing process of the mother coin which produced this anomaly.
