Japanese Coin - Edo Period - Tokugawa Shogunate

Description: History of the ArtifactThese Japanese Edo Period coins, were the first of their kind to be casted for general circulation in 1636 after the currency reform after centuries of using Chinese coins for trading. The value of a Mon was set at par with Bita, which could purchase a sardine (iwashi), a piece mochi, or 1 Gō of salt (about 0.18 litre).The Edo period in Japan, which lasted from 1603 to 1868, was marked by peace, stability, and isolation. It was characterized by the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate, led from the city of Edo (modern-day Tokyo). During this time, Japan implemented strict social hierarchies, including a rigid caste system, and enforced a policy of national seclusion, limiting foreign influence and trade. The arts, culture, and economy flourished, with the emergence of the samurai class, the development of kabuki theater, and the practice of ukiyo-e woodblock printing. The Edo period came to an end with the Meiji Restoration, a period of modernization and transformation in Japan.The coin you will receive will be of very similar size and quality as the ones shown in the pictures.
