Oh beats Aaron! Both the lid of the wood presentation box and the obverse of the coin include the Japanese text, "Home Run #756 New World Record". Both also include Oh's name. The reverse of the coin has the inscriptions, "World Home Run King Sadaharu Oh" and "9/3/77 Korakuen Stadium", the date and the ballpark where the home run was hit. The coin is heavy. We are not sure as to its composition.

Size: Case--3 3/4" square. Coin--2 1/4" in diameter, 3 oz.

Condition: The box has scratches on the lid. Coin--Ex/Mt.
