JAPAN. 2 Bu. 1868-1869. Emperor Meiji (1867-1912) - Value: 2 Bu. - Reign: Emperor Meiji (1867-1912). - Year: 1868-1869. - Inscriptions: Obverse: 二分 (Ni Bu, “2 Bu”) within an ornamental cartouche. Reverse: Stylized floral design with paulownias (kiri) and traditional decorative motifs. - Grade: MS62 (GBCA). Rectangular 2 Bu gold coin belonging to the early issues of the Meiji era, minted during the pivotal transitional period between feudal Japan under the Tokugawa shogunate and the modernization of the imperial state. The obverse features the denomination 二分 in elegant, deeply engraved Japanese characters, surrounded by a beaded border that frames the composition. The reverse shows a refined set of stylized paulownia flowers, a traditional emblem associated with the Japanese government, executed with great detail and ornamental balance. The reliefs retain excellent definition, with sharp lines and well-preserved surfaces. The gold maintains an intense yellow color with its original luster visible across most fields, accompanied by light contact marks typical of handling and storage, in line with the MS62 grade. This piece constitutes a notable testament to the monetary reform undertaken at the start of the Meiji era, when Japan began a profound process of economic and political modernization that would transform the country into a modern power in the following decades.
