A rare and historic piece of Japanese silver bean money, also known as Mameita-gin, dating back to the Edo period (1603–1868). These small, bean-shaped silver coins were issued by local domains and feudal lords to facilitate everyday transactions in their regions.
This example displays beautiful copper-toned patina, adding unique eye appeal to its already fascinating history. While not standardized national currency, these coins played an important role as auxiliary/local money during Japan’s feudal era.
