1 Silver Monme Shibamura-han, Yamato

Shibamura-han was a small fudai domain in Yamato Province (present-day Nara Prefecture) with an assessed yield of just 10,000 koku — the minimum threshold for han status. Domains of this size rarely issued their own paper currency, making this 1745 note an unusual artifact of the decentralized Tokugawa financial system, in which even minor lords maintained the legal right to circulate han-satsu within their territories.

The denomination in silver monme places it within a commodity-weight currency framework rather than the gold ryō system favored by larger domains. Acceptance outside Shibamura's narrow jurisdiction would have been essentially nil.
