I was looking at these papers for a Higo tsuba today, and don't know what is correct translation on the first two characters. "Go-shire?"

 

I have the feeling that this is going to kill me with how simple the answer is...

Instinct or latent memory says that these characters simply mean 'late' as in Higo from late edo period.
