JapanX Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 Since on other phalera forums our colleagues are trying to use shade of the green enamel for dating rising suns I think it will be usefull to examine in every detail two additional examples of 7th class. One from Meiji epoch (00s) and the other from late Showa (late 30s). First will be this exellent Meiji piece Obverse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
