gxseries Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 I was in Japan last year. I found it quite hard to find the new 500 yen coin in circulation. It's seen as a nuisance as it's not readily accepted by vending machines despite in circulation for 3 years. (issued since 2021). Reiwa issued coins (except 100 and 500 yen) are surprisingly difficult to find despite being in a capital city. I have managed to gather all 3 years of 500 yen... (500 yen makes it very expensive to do a complete year set!) I'll try to take a photo of the 500 yen coins when I get a chance. Thought I'd share a video of the production of the coin.
