The 1 Yen Daikoku note is frequently offered for sale, but the situation is completely different with the two higher denomination notes in this issue which rarely turn up in any grade. The 5 Yen example here, where Daikoku appears in purple on the back, is an extraordinary exception. An uncommon expedient Specimen prepared on an issued example. Inks on both sides remain excellent. Rust is noted, along with oversized hole punched cancellations. From the Yuri Solovey Collection of Japan and Territories
