[QUOTE="Majestic, post: 787212, member: 61235"] A1. Yes, you are correct. I would say "check" is a good direct translation - but it carries the meaning of having passed the examination. A2. Since it has "5" under it, it must be 25 (二十五) A3. Yes, the seal of the consulate. I don't think its personal to the consul, rather it is the seal of the office. I can't read all of it myself, but the middle vertical band is 日本帝国 (Empire of Japan). The last two on the left vertical band look like 領事 (consul) [/QUOTE]
