Reverse description Irregularly hammered silver rectangular flan with a heavily pitted and granular surface. A large circular seal stamp occupies the centre of the field, enclosing the character 改 (kai, meaning 'revised' or 'reformed') rendered in an elaborate seal script style. The seal impression is deeply struck and clearly defined against the rough silver ground, serving as the authenticating mark of the Kubota Domain monetary authority. The overall surface retains the characteristic uneven topography of hand-worked feudal Japanese silver.
