Kvart Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 Hello, A few days ago I had a look at my Japanese medals. While I was handling the Taisho Enthronement Commemorative Medal, the interior of the box fell out. It revealed some writing I have never seen before, even though I have owned the medal for almost ten years. Can some of you guys read it? Any help in translating the text will be very much appreciated. Thanks a lot!
marcotk Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 (edited) Very nice discovery! It should be: 4th year of the Taishō era (ndr: 1915), November 10th, a memento of the Enthronement ceremony I think on the 17th of that month, that is on the day of the banquet in the prefecture council palace, I received (ndr: this medal). In kanji (row by row): 大正四年十一月十日 御即位式紀念 今月十七日信、即 饗饌縣會議 事堂於賜 Edited August 26, 2016 by marcotk
