drclaw Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 A handsome tiger indeed. That "9I" digital mark is still a mystery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanX Posted June 2, 2013 Author Share Posted June 2, 2013 That "9I" digital mark is still a mystery. Unfortunately ... Same goes to others letter/number marks on Tigers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drclaw Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 (edited) The 3rd Class is signed by President Feng Guozhang. It appears that the Republic followed the Japanese practice of having the First, Second and Third Class documents personally signed by the head of state. The documents themselves closely copied Japanese award documents with minor differences. The top image features the particular badge / class of the award (in Japanese documents, this image is the chrysanthemum). The bottom image features the lapel rosette (in Japanese awards, this image is the badge of the award). While the original decrees specified that award documents were to be numbered, this did not occur in practice from what I can tell.

drclaw Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 From the Yong Zeng Zi Zao workshop. It`s interesting by this double punched seal If this was a stamp it would be worth 10 times the value This is one of the nicer looking Yong zeng tigers. Some of the Yong zeng tigers look downright cartoony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanX Posted September 25, 2013 Author Share Posted September 25, 2013 Like them too! These serious "don't mess with me" tigers P.S. If this was a stamp it would be worth 10 times the value Let's wait a little bit... I remember the times when collectors of soviets awards bought orders with unusually positioned (or stamped) marks with a premium (sometime quite substantial ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drclaw Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 750,000 yen is a lot for a chipped Third Class. Even for a pristine Third Class. No wonder it's still Buy It Now on YJA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanX Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) 750,000 yen is a lot for a chipped Third Class. To put it very mildly! P.S.
