{"title":"Japanese silver coins buyback | Gu Jin Jian Bao","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBuyback Japanese Silver Coins: Appraisal and Purchase of Meiji Dragon and Trade Dollars\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJapan began minting modern machine-made silver coins in Meiji 3 (1870). Among these, the one-yen dragon silver coin is highly renowned in Asian numismatic circles due to its exquisite oriental dragon design and high silver content (approximately 90%). Dragon silver coins from the early Meiji era are rare, and those in good condition fetch prices far exceeding later years. In addition to the one-yen dragon coin, the Trade Dollar from Meiji 7 is also a popular variety. Gujin Jianbao is familiar with the mintage quantities and variations of Japanese silver coins from different years, allowing us to provide accurate valuations for your

The coin is made of high-purity silver, with a silver content of approximately 90%, consistent with most Japanese circulating silver coins of the time.\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Technical Specifications and Parameters Comparison Chart\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 12.478%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Indicator\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 35.8524%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.1424%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIdentification Focus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 12.478%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,1,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"5,1,0,0\"\u003eMinting Year\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 35.8524%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,1,1,0\"\u003eMeiji 11 (1878)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.1424%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,1,2,0\"\u003eObserve if the characters\"Shi Yi\"(eleven) are regular and neat\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 12.478%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,2,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"5,2,0,0\"\u003eCoin Material\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 35.8524%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,2,1,0\"\u003e90% Pure Silver + 10% Copper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.1424%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,2,2,0\"\u003eSilver luster should be natural and soft, with no pungent chemical odor\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 12.478%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,3,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"5,3,0,0\"\u003eStandard Weight\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 35.8524%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,3,1,0\"\u003eApprox. 26.96 grams\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.1424%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,3,2,0\"\u003eWeight of severely worn coins should not be less than 26.5 grams\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 12.478%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,4,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"5,4,0,0\"\u003eCoin Diameter\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 35.8524%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,4,1,0\"\u003e38.6 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.1424%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,4,2,0\"\u003eEdge reeding should be uniform in depth, with no signs of artificial polishing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 12.478%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,5,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"5,5,0,0\"\u003ePunch Mark Position\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 35.8524%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,5,1,0\"\u003eLeft or right of\"Yi Yuan \"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.1424%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,5,2,0\"\u003eThe\"Yin\"punch mark should be of uniform depth, with naturally stressed edges\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 12.478%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,6,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"5,6,0,0\"\u003eDesign Craftsmanship\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 35.8524%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,6,1,0\"\u003eFront: Dragon motif, Reverse: Cherry blossom and Chrysanthemum motifs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.1424%;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"5,6,2,0\"\u003eDragon scale details and fluidity of dragon whiskers are key to authenticity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eWhy is the Meiji 11 \"Gin\" (Silver) Edition so Rare?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003eUnlike common Meiji dragon silver coins, coins marked with the \"Gin\" character originated from a special policy by the Japanese government.
