Kyoho gold Koban (Ryo) ND (1714-1736) AU Details (Tooled) PCGS, Edo mint, KM-FR12, JNDA 09-17, Hartill-8.20 (ER). 39x70mm. Without era designator on reverse. A still relatively attractive rendition of this early 18th-century Koban with distinctive die rust in the recesses of the stamps. The noted "tooling" appears to refer to an attempt to strengthen the Paulownia leaf stamp on the reverse, which has been rather weakly struck. Mislabeled on the holder as a Shotoku Koban.
