Japanese Cash Coin Genpou Tsuho 1 Mon Coins were not minted with dates, but this form was used between 1659 to 1685 The first coins minted in Japan were the Wadou Kaichin(Wadokaichin later anglicised to Cash) made by the imperial government in 708 on the orders of Empress Gemmei. Following that, eleven varieties of coins were minted until the year 958, at which point the government stopped minting cash coins. Even during the age of Japanese imperial minting, Chinese coins circulated as currency and were probably much more common than the imperial ones which are quite scarce. Chinese coins were imported in great quantities and were the standard currency until the early-to-mid 1600's. In the 17th century the Tokugawa government began minting its own coins again. The first three eras, Keichou (1596-1614), Genna (1615-1623), and Kan'ei (1624-1643) each had coins with its own legends on the obverse. Curiously the government thereafter decided to stick with the Kan'ei legend for all low value cash coins it minted until the 1860's. In the 1860's the government began issuing a small value cash coin with a new legend, the Bunkyuu tsuuhou. About this time many domainal lords also began minting their own cash coins.   From the year 1659 until around 1685 large amounts of copper coins were minted in Nagasaki. These coins were based on Japanese designed coins but used Chinese characters of Song era coins. By far the most common is the formal script (kaishou) Genpou Tsuho (Chinese: Yuan Feng Tong Bao). It is easily distinguished from the Chinese Song coin because the Song coin exists in seal script and semi cursive script. These coins have commonly become known as the Nagasaki export coins. These coins were largely phased out after the Meiji currency reforn of 1870. INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS WELCOME

Under the command of Colonel Ishii Shiro, the unit conducted many experiments in the 1930s and 1940s which involved the use of living subjects. The author shows how the United States government provided immunity from investigation for men who thereby avoided war crimes trials, so that the US could acquire the results of Japanese expertise in bacteriological warfare. 297 pp.

The Russo–Japanese War (1904–05) was fought between the Russian Empire and the Empire of Japan over rival imperial ambitions in Manchuria and Korea. The major theatres of operations were the Liaodong Peninsula and Mukden in Southern Manchuria and the seas around Korea, Japan and the Yellow Sea. The Battle/Blockade/Siege of Port Arthur was the major engagement of the War. Ellis Ashmead-Bartlett was an English war correspondent during the First World War. Through his reporting of the Battle of Gallipoli he was instrumental in the birth of the Anzac legend which still dominates military history in Australia and New Zealand. Twelve years previously Ashmead-Bartlett arrived in Manchuria to report the Russo-Japanese War. " As we have probably witnessed old-fashioned assaults and close-order formations for the last time, it has been one of my chief objects to place on record the obsolete method of fighting which characterised the Siege."
