Hankering for Japanese currency (3)
I believe the answer is:
yen
I believe this is a double definition.
'hankering' is the first definition.
(synonyms)
'japanese currency' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for yen that I've seen before include "Japenese currency" , "Intense longing" , "Longing for a currency unit" , "Have a longing for Japanese money?" , "money in Tokyo" .)
