Summary

edit
Description
English: This Nagasaki coin is the cursive version of the above Genpou Tsuuhou. The characters are written in a fascinatingly dynamic way. Skillful or clumsy I am not sure, but they seem to whirl around the center square hole like a tornado around the vortex. A Japanese collector friend kindly gave this coin to me.

This coin and the ones below are moderately uncommon. Unlike the immense variety of the formal script Genpou tsuuhou above, they each exist in only one basic type with only very minor variations if at all. 24mmx1mm
