…. POST-REFORM COINAGE.

NOTE: I decided not to separate the legends in lines by using / otherwise it will look like a mess. Also I left the ᴢ retrograde as ᴢ as I couldn’t find the correct character and it happens too often to write “z retrograde”. Also also, Komeno dynasty legends (according to Sear anyway) seem to have a lot of “macrons” and “ties”, again, I have no easy way of typing them that way, I feel like it’s not that important, and people do have eyes.
