A guide for this piece: about $1,158, 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 one ounce bar of 999.9 fine gold from the Royal Mint, struck in 2024 with the heroes of the Light Side and sealed in its original card.
The Piece
The heroes of the Light Side are struck in relief across the face of the bar; the reverse carries the Star Wars logo and the weight and fineness. The bar has never left its tamper evident card, which bears the Royal Mint assay details.
The issue was limited to 5,000 bars. It is offered unused, with its card and certificate.
The Royal Mint and Star Wars
The Royal Mint is the United Kingdom's official maker of coins. It worked within the Tower of London for several hundred years and moved to Llantrisant in Wales in 1968; it now also makes precious metal products and collectibles, and takes 886 as its symbolic founding date.
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. This 2024 bar shows the heroes of the Light Side. More limited pieces are in the limited edition collection.
