Beautiful Japanese Culture That's Almost Never Seen Outside Japan!
Numismatic releases from Japan can often be tough to track down. Some, nearly impossibly so. The nation tends to release only tiny amounts of its mintages for overseas distribution. And in the case of the Japan Mint's National Treasure Medal series, it seldom happens! This 2021 release marks only the second time in the 10-plus-year history of this series that the Japan Mint is releasing a small portion of the gold and silver mintages to foreign nations. Of the 800 gold Proof medals that were struck, only 3.75% (just 30 pieces) are available for overseas markets—and we believe we may have the only medals available in the Western hemisphere!
Stunning Example Of Traditional Japanese Architecture
Struck in 45 grams of 99.9% pure gold, these medals display Yakushiji Temple, one of the most famous imperial and ancient Buddhist temples in Japan, represented by the temple's East Pagoda and a celestial figure playing a flute on its roof. The reverse design shows the inscription from the East Pagoda surrounded by the Four Auspicious Beasts as carved in temple's Buddha pedestal
Order Now Or Miss Out
Not only does this offer give you the opportunity to secure one of these fascinating gold medals, but each one we have available has been certified and graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) as being in as flawless Proof-70 Ultra Cameo (PF70UC) condition, a distinction that means these perfectly-graded proofs have ZERO imperfections—showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended. In addition, NGC has certified each proof with a First Releases (FR) designation, meaning they were received by NGC or an NGC-approved depository by the release date or on the business day within 24 hours of the official release date. Each will also come sonically sealed in a museum-quality acrylic holder with a black display core and encapsulated with an exclusive Mount Fuji label.
Plus, each will be accompanied by its original mint packaging and a Certificate of Authenticity from the Japan Mint. We were able to secure only 10 of these highly coveted gold medals and when they're gone, we doubt we'll ever be able to offer them again. So, hurry and get yours now while there's still time!
