ASIAN MEDALS

[No one]

Dear Gentlemen,

 

For this one, still a mystery but at least we know now it's Japanese, Meiji 44th year 5th month (May 1911).

 

 

Yours sincerely,

The previous yellow "Koa" medal is interesting, as it fits a cultural slogan in use during the era of "Uniting the 7 Tribes of Asia" or "Asia is One Heart".  It is seen on SMR Mantetsu blades, and according to the late Nick Komiya at Warrelics, was used widely throughout Japan in various venues.

And cannot find any information.

Dear Gentlemen,

 

The last of this topic.There's something odd about the fact that two characters don't seem to exist.

 

Except for the name of the province 'Jiāngxī/Kiangsi' and the phrase 'to present respectfully' the other part doesn't make sense.

 

 

Yours sincerely,

No one
