Western Section 16 Unit
[Western Section, Unit 16]

ヒキチ4班
Hikichi 4 Han
Hikichi 4 Squad
[Hikichi Squad 4] Hikichi is a surname

スギムラタイオヤナカ
Sugimura Taio Yanaka
This part troubles me ... I'm not certain I've transcribed it properly. I recognize Sugita and Yanaka as surnames .... I do not know how "Taio" fits in (if I've read that correctly) -- Taio can be a male given name .... but to me it just does not seem to fit.

Anyway, bonafide Japanese-written kanji and katakana, so no problem there.

Probably indicative of gold, which the old money was.
