    Thanks again for all the time and work you put into it.

    I have no idea what stones used to sell for in Japan back then but I doubt that anybody paid half a year salary for this one in 1965. Don't get me wrong, the stones is pretty clean, no lines, no cracks, has all the corners but no way anybody paid that price for it. Just my opinion.

    Maybe perspective of annual wage comes into play, half a years wage to me is half a practice session to a professional spots star or a day at to office to a successful business fatcat, maybe the guy just liked to be buttery smooth everyday
