Description: FOR the complete story, FULL DETAILS and BIG CLEAR PICTURES, Please SEE THE DESCRIPTION 1945 MANCHUKUO Fiber "1 Fen" >WORLD WAR II Description In 1931 the Japanese invaded and eventually seized Manchuria from China. By 1934 they had set up a "puppet" government and placed the former Ming Emperor, Pu-yi or K’ang Te on the throne. The "new" country was named “Manchukuo”. It only lasted until August of 1945 when the Soviets marched in and Japan was defeated at the end of World War II. This is a very nice, probably used, "One Fen" brown fiber coin, from Manchukuo. It was issued in 1945 when things were looking dim for Japan. There were two types of this coin issued. The first type was made from red fiber. Weight: 0.73 Gram, Diameter: 16.5 Millimeters, Brown Fiber (rubber with magnesite). Mintage: Unknown. "Standard Catalog of World Coins" (1901-2000) by Krause-Mishler. Y#13A.1. Face: K’ang Te • Henry Pu-yi. • Designs. Back: Empire of Manchukuo. •/• 1 •/• Year 12 (1945) • Pu-yi reigned from 1934 until 1945 when he was captured by the Soviets.
