| Obverse description | A stylized dove in flight occupies the central field, depicted in a flowing, decorative line style with extended wings and tail feathers rendered in bold relief against a mirror-polished background. The bird carries an olive branch in its beak, symbolizing peace and reconstruction. Surrounding the central motif are naturalistic foliate and floral elements — leaves, berries, and blossoms — arranged in an ornamental composition. The legend 日本国 (State of Japan) arcs across the upper field in kanji characters, while the denomination 10000 円 appears in stylized numerals and kanji along the lower portion of the field. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. |

The motivational legend がんばろう日本 (Let's do our best, Japan) appears prominently in hiragana and kanji across the field, with the date inscription 平成27年 (Year 27 of Heisei, i.e. 2015) centered below, flanked by raised dots. The design is enclosed within a beaded border consistent with the obverse. |
