| Reverse description | The numeral '1' dominates the upper central field in bold relief, with the Japanese era date 昭和二十六年 (Year 26 of the Shōwa era, corresponding to 1951) inscribed horizontally in the lower field. The entire design is encircled by a wreath of stylized foliate branches, tied at the base, creating a formal border around the denomination and date. The composition is typical of Japanese pattern coinage, with clean, uncluttered fields and precise incised lettering. |
