| Obverse description | Irregular round hammered gold flan bearing a symmetrical arrangement of six stylized foliate or floral motifs in high relief, disposed around the field in an orderly pattern. The central and surrounding devices display intricately worked, lobed leaf forms rendered in the plastic, raised style characteristic of late Sengoku-period Japanese gold coinage. A continuous border of raised beads encircles the entire field, forming a granular rim typical of Enbukin-type bu coins. |
