文政元年、文正二年

Bunsei 1 and Bunshō 2, but the second date mistakenly(???) uses a different character…

[Yamazakura Fr]

Thank you Pier

In the Bunsei 1, I can read the Tora zodiacal kanjIi (in 4th position)

what do you think ?

[SteveM]

I think they are both 文政, its just that the top picture uses a variation (𭐠)

 

So 文政ニ卯年

and 文政元寅年

[Bugyotsuji]

Good spot, Steve! 　And the Eto zodiac years match too.

(The writing styles are very different though, even only one year apart.)
