Funny side note: when it looked as if the stamps weren’t going to arrive during the year of the ox, I found some kanji images, printed them out & took them to work, intending to copy them with the toner copier, bring them home & use my Minc to add gold foil. A Japanese client walked past my desk, very interested in knowing what I was doing. I told her the story & she gave me a lesson on kanji and educated me in the three languages of Japan. When I showed her the photos I had of my prototype, she turned my phone & said the kanji was upside down...when I showed her the next picture that had a coin in the center of the front element, she did the same thing!
SO...if anyone looking at these pictures notices the kanji on the coins is upside down...
The stamps were easy because there was a legend in the set!
