This specimen was lot 1437 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2022), where it sold for $2,520. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "[[Japan|JAPAN]]. 10 Sen, Year 35 (1902). Osaka Mint. Mutsuhito (Meiji). NGC MS-66. This KEY DATE example is finest example certified by NGC, and tied with three PCGS examples for the finest certified at PCGS. Ringed by rainbow tone, this Gem maintains the perfect balance between vibrant hues of tone and striking silver luster, yielding a masterwork. The artistry of the strike is fully displayed with the most limited breaks in gloss on the reverse, with a nearly perfect obverse. This beauty is a must have for those who desire the lovely and the high grade." This type, roughly equal to a dime, was struck 1873-1906 and is common in all grades but this date is scarce. The superseding type (KM Y29), issued 1907-12, was 2.25 g, .720 fine silver. The last silver ten sen was struck in 1917.

''Recorded mintage:'' 1,204,439, a scarce date.

''Specification:'' 2.69 g, .800 fine silver.

''Catalog reference:'' KM-Y23; JNDA-01-24.
