Edo Period 10 Monme Silver Han-satsu Note - Tosa Domain (Tosa Province)

This 10 monme silver han-satsu note was issued by the Tosa Domain in Tosa Province (modern-day Kochi Prefecture) during the Edo period. It features the domain's official currency used by the feudal lord, showcasing the design unique to the Tosa Domain.

In fair condition with typical signs of age and wear, this historical note is tied to the legacy of the Tosa Domain, led by the Yamanouchi family, including the 15th feudal lord, Yamanouchi Toyonobu (Yodo), a key figure of the late Edo period. Tosa was also the birthplace of many significant figures such as Sakamoto Ryoma and Itagaki Taisuke.

A fascinating collectible for enthusiasts of Japanese history and old currency.
