Jean Posted March 24, 2019 Report Posted March 24, 2019 Chris, Ou have rhe era now you must find the year. http://www.japaneseswordindex.com/kanji/nengo.htm In a Japanese date, you have first the era, then the year of the era finishing by a day in the XXX month http://www.japaneseswordindex.com/kanji/nengo.htm You found the era, just after you have the number of year then the numeral of the month followed by the kanji « a day » Quote
