Japanese: 張紙値段 - はりがみねだん
Posted price - Harigaminedan
The Edo Shogunate's official rice price. It was so named because it was posted in the form of a hosho (letter of thanks) in the Naka-no-kuchi (middle entrance) of Edo Castle in New Year, April, and September. It was used as the conversion rate for the salaries of hatamoto and gokenin (vassal vassals), but it differed from the actual price of rice. In some regions, it was also used as the conversion price for kokudai-inou (annual tax payment) with a certain increase added.

Japanese:
江戸幕府の公定米価。正月,4月,9月に江戸城内の中ノ口(なかのくち)に奉書の形で張紙されたのでこの称がある。旗本・御家人の俸禄の換算率となるが,実際の米価とは違っていた。一部の地方では年貢石代納(こくだいのう)の換算値段としても一定の増値段を加えて用いられた。
