A guide for this piece: about $453, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

A quarter ounce coin of pure gold issued by Niue in 2017, struck with Luke Skywalker beside his landspeeder on Tatooine.
The Piece
Luke stands beside his X-34 landspeeder with the buildings of Tatooine behind, the scene in fine relief. The obverse carries the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II and the 25 dollar denomination.
The coin is 22 mm across and weighs 7.7 g of 24 carat gold, and comes with its certificate of quality.
Star Wars Gold from Niue
Niue, in free association with New Zealand, has issued coins since 1966, mostly bullion and commemorative pieces that are legal tender on the island. In 2017 the New Zealand Mint struck an officially licensed Star Wars Classics issue showing Luke Skywalker beside his X-34 landspeeder on Tatooine, as in A New Hope: 1,000 quarter ounce gold coins of 25 dollars, 500 one ounce gold coins and 10,000 in silver.
George Lucas's Star Wars opened in 32 American cinemas on 25 May 1977 and became a surprise blockbuster; outside the United States, Japan was its largest market. Lucas had even considered Toshiro Mifune, the star of many of Akira Kurosawa's films, for a leading role. More limited pieces are in the limited edition collection.
