| Reverse description | The reverse displays a single large Chinese character 一 (ichi, meaning 'one') cast in relief above the central square perforation, serving as a mint or furnace mark identifying the Ichinose mint. The field is otherwise plain and largely smooth, with a raised square rim surrounding the central hole and a well-defined outer border rim. The minimalist design is characteristic of Edo-period Japanese cast mon coinage, where a single reverse character denotes the issuing mint or casting house. |
