Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays a bold, cursive kanji inscription arranged vertically, reading '筑前' (Chikuzen), the historical province name identifying the issuing domain. Below or integrated within the inscription is a kaō (花押), a stylized personal seal or cursive monogram, serving as an authenticating mark in the tradition of Japanese domain coinage. The characters are rendered in an expressive, semi-cursive script style deeply engraved into the hammered gold surface. A border of raised beads frames the composition along the irregular rectangular edge, consistent with the obverse treatment.

Aanvullende informatie

Fukuoka Domain's gold 2 Bu issue of 1868 was produced in the final, chaotic months before the Meiji government abolished domain coinage rights entirely. The Chikuzen Bukin designation — Chikuzen being the ancient province in which Fukuoka sat — distinguishes this from the national 2 Bu coinage circulating simultaneously, and reflects the domain's insistence on asserting its own monetary authority right up to the end.

Production ceased abruptly with the currency reforms that followed the Boshin War's conclusion. Surviving examples are overwhelmingly from hoards rather than circulation finds.
