The purpose of this paper is to examine the actual condition of the use of money in the Kanto (関東) district in the early modern times. The historical documents are the sale and delivery deeds of the land. We analyzed what kind of money was used in those deeds. As a result, we found that in this district the use of gold was dominant from the latter half of the 17th century to the 18th century , that copper coins and silver were used as small sums of money, and that new gold (正徳享保金) and Genbun gold (元文金) were diffused rapidly. We even found that the shortage of money was solved through the recoinage in the Genroku (元禄) period in the latter half of the 17th century.
