History

The first 10,000 yen coin was minted in 1986 as a silver commemorative to mark the 60th year of the enthronement of the Shōwa Emperor, Hirohito. Gold has been used to strike these coins in proof only format since 1997 when they were first issued for the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano. The weight and size of each coin varies by commemorative as both 15.6g (26mm) and 20.0g (28 - 35mm) have been used.[1]
