I have had this plus another Okimono for a few years.   This is my favorite because of the subject matter, and consider myself lucky to have found this one.   I do not have a translation of the signature and would request assistance on this any other thoughts or any opinions as to age and value.  I am thinking it is Meji Period but I am not sure.   Note the prominent mon on the back of the figure, and others scattered on his attire. The figure is quite heavy weighing in at about 1 lb 8 oz.     see pictures attached.
