If you want to mirror the relative size of the cardboard tokens included in the game, you'll want to scale this up...probably in the 200% range? The game requires 12 of them.

A detailed double-sided replica of a classic Japanese koban (小判), the oval gold coin used during the Edo period under the Tokugawa shogunate. The front features the distinctive vertical ridges, “両” unit mark, and floral crests, while the reverse carries the traditional stamps and hallmarks.

  • Clear “両” character, ridge texture, and decorative crests
  • Reverse stamps and official marks
  • Solid single-piece design
  • Looks excellent in silk gold or metallic gold filament

Recommended Print Settings

  • Layer height: 0.12–0.16 mm for best detail on characters and stamps
  • Walls: 3–4
  • Infill: 15–25% (or 100% for a heavier feel)
  • Supports: None needed when printed flat
  • Filament: Silk gold or metallic gold PLA recommended
