| Reverse description | The reverse features a central radiant sunburst motif occupying the middle of the field, from which rays extend outward. Surrounding the sunburst is an alternating arrangement of eight paulownia (kiri) crests — each displaying the distinctive five-seven paulownia blossom configuration — and eight chrysanthemum (kiku) imperial seals, disposed at regular intervals in a circular pattern. The composition is contained within a plain border with a toothed rim, creating a highly symmetrical and heraldically precise design. |
