"Round iron plate with kaku mimi ko niku, ji sukashi of two rings, and lead-filled hitsu-ana. The sekigane is in Suruga style.

Signatures both sides are being studied (very faint) to confirm evidence of being made by TAKATSUGU (in early life called Haruta Chuzaemon) H 09330.0. His work is exceedingly rare." (Haynes)
