Rare Japanese WW2 money

I have like 2 grand in Iraqi dinar I purchased from the central bank in Iraq when I was there. Was hoping they would stabilize and start pumping out oil and make them go 3-1us like the Kuwaiti dinar.....but no such damn luck. I think it's even worse than when I bought it.

I remember in 2011 my manager was telling me to buy a million. She did what you did i think.

The coin industry can have some scammery types of people. Get a few offers before you sell maybe? Personally i would never sell that thing.

She's a beaut.

1907 was the last year they minted that design, a little over 2.4 million were struck.

From those pictures, looks to be in VG (very good) or maybe F (fine) condition. Possibly VF (very fine).

Containing just under half an ounce troy of pure gold, melt value is around $900 at the time of this post.

Looks to be a regular strike, as well. Collector value would be determind by condition and at which mint it was struck (the different mints struck different numbers of them, affecting rarity).
