A lovely example of this historic medal, NGC Certified graded Mint State-65. The first Japanese Embassy to the West opened in the U. S. in 1860, just months before the outbreak of the Civil War. On February 13, 1860, the military ruler of Japan, the Shogun, sent delegates clad in traditional native gowns, to present their credentials to "his Majesty, the President of the United States, " to formally open relations. The ambassadors and their staff sailed from Yokohama with 50 tons of Japanese baggage, 100, 000 readily negotiable Mexican dollars, and a large supply of Japanese food. . The vessel that carried them from Japan to San Francisco, their first port-of-call, was the navy frigate Powhatan, one of the steam-powered paddle-wheelers Perry had employed in "opening" Japan. The ceremony that followed at the White House inspired massive displays of patriotism and hospitality in America's major cities. This was a momentous event that propelled the Nippon State from total isolation to eventual global power.
