Uruguay 1935 - Departamento de Emisión del Banco de la Republica Oriental del Uruguay 1,000 Pesos Large-Format Presentation Photo Proof Pair (Pick Unlisted)

Edo-period Japanese 5 Momme Silver hansatsu printed by woodblock on handmade washi paper, showing vertical kanji inscriptions, circular and boxed validation seals, an oil merchant seal, and a reverse design with Daikokuten, rice bale symbolism, and ornamental wave-pattern security carving.

Japan 1800 - Edo Period 5 Momme Silver Hansatsu with Daikokuten Reverse and Oil Merchant Validation Seal Woodblock Printed on Handmade Washi Paper

One of the most important details is the boxed validation seal associated with oil. This pushes the note beyond the category of a generic feudal paper issue and gives it a clear commercial character. Oil was an essential commodity in Edo-period Japan, used for lighting, cooking, and daily urban life. Merchant-backed or commodity-linked scrip connected to oil, rice, sake, silver, and other practical goods formed part of the regional monetary landscape. This piece therefore stands at the meeting point of silver accounting, merchant exchange, domain-era paper currency, and everyday commodity trade. Read more →

The design is visually rich and highly finished, showing Bradbury Wilkinson and Company's mature security-printing language in full expression. Blue-green and lavender toning is organized through a dense guilloche framework, over which the central inscription panel is set with formal clarity. Behind the lettering appears the large pale Australia map motif carrying the circular "C.B.C." medallion, a unifying emblem used across the series. The denomination tablets, broad signature line, and carefully balanced engraved borders give the proof a dignified corporate presence while preserving the elegance expected of a major London security printer working for an Australian banking institution at the threshold of decimal reform.
