What is the variety?

Thank you!

For me that looks like the replica variety.
But I can be wrong of course!

It's probably the On 1 Shu variety of the Ansei era (differs from the Kaei issues only by calligraphic variations) currently not in that year list.
Personally I think these die variations are too much for Numista more for specialized collectors. There are literally 63 combinations for the Ansei types and maybe even more non-documented. When one looks at the number they minted that's hundreds of handmade dies with small differences.

Also without depiction of the calligraphy the variant combinations are useless. I don't know where the JNDA and Hartill catalogs got their depictions and I can't look at my Munro at the moment if it already contained such pictures as a copyright free source.

​Those coins are crude, but the one shown is quite real; they all look like that though so I understand.

@Idolenz indeed, I just registered my own example in the "unknown variety" line in the Numista catalogue.

Thanks, so I am wrong.
But that is the way how we learn about coins, isn't it?
I will not make the same mistake next time!

Its real in my opinion. Its an Ansei Isshugin, of which there are 63 types. This is type #43 or type #44 according to my Japanese catalog, ,which wont mean much if you dont have this particular catalog (sorry) but the value remains as is Krause C#12, so about $15-$20 I would say.

​Indeed it is, I have learned a few things myself from you!

Hello,

I looked my 2017 Catalog book, and I don't find an identical picture of your coin.

It maybe private mint or uncatagorized variety. The most similar variety is Ansei 1-Shu Gin Ln, but there are some difference in 朱 and 座 though.

I found a Japanese link.

The page explain about 1-Bu Gin and 1-Shu Gin, so scroll to the bottom for 1-Shu Gin pictures.

​Hello everyone who kindly helped me.

Faced with my ignorance as to oriental pieces and the patent difficulty in trying to identify a strange completing language for me. I opted for the adoption of the solution used by our companion CassTaylor, when he expressed himself and informed the following: "@Idolenz in fact, I just registered my own example in the line" unknown variety "in the catalog Numista.

I am happy to join a community so willing to help each other.
Thank you all.
