Spotted this photo over on a IBC Forum post. It’s a Japanese White Pine that sold this week at the ASPAC Bonsai Convention in Takamatsu, Japan. Priced at 100,000,000 yen, it works out at roughly £823,500.
As my son would say OMG!!

Was it a Kokofu winner? That might explain the price.

Not to sure, all that was said about it was it hadn’t been exhibited since 1940. I think that was part of the attraction.
