Rising Sun Order Box

[Nico]

Hello chaps,

I've been comparing the box below with the one in Paul's thread about rising sun orders. The one I'm showing is supposed to be a 8th class box. However I notice a few variations in the Kanji.

Is there a way for you gents to tell me what order this box goes with?

Thanks,

Nicolas

Sorry for the bad picture but this should do....

You've got to look at the second character from the top.... So in this case you've got an 8th class..

Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot for this information JC!! :cheers:

This is a Showa era 8th Class case, actually from between 1940-45 since the characters on the lid are in silver instead of gilt.
