2 Bu 'Chikuzen Bukin'

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.
