Sterling Silver Japanese Samurai Era " Kaei Isshugin (1 shu)" Coin Rings (2 styles)
If I’m being honest, I originally created this design for myself. I’m a huge fan feudal Japan Samurai culture, so when I found a supplier of these actual Isshugin (1 shu) silver coins minted in the the mid 1800s, well I knew I had to make some pretty cool jewelry out of them.
These little Silver coins are from the Emperor Komei period of 1846-1867 AD and were minted between the years 1853-1865 AD. The obverse bears the incuse marks and 4 marks translated to, Guaranteed, Ginza (Silver Mint), and Joze (Mint Official), all surrounded by a pearl border. The reverse translation is : one (1), Shu, Silver. The were made from .968 Sterling Silver. They have Vertical reeding on short sides and slanted reeding on long sides. These coins have been demonetized in Japan.
