| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features a dynamic figure of a speed skater in full racing crouch, depicted in left profile with arms swept back, rendered in frosted relief against a stippled background of scattered triangular motifs evoking speed and motion. The Olympic five-ring emblem appears to the lower left of the skater. The kanji legend 日本国 (State of Japan) is distributed across the upper field, flanking the skater, with 壱万円 (10,000 Yen) inscribed across the lower field. The design is contained within an inner beaded border. |

Issued for the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics, this piece is one of several gold commemoratives struck by the Japan Mint across two years leading up to the Games. Nagano's selection as host city in 1991 had been a surprise — it beat out Salt Lake City, Östersund, Jaca, and Aosta in a vote that would later be scrutinized as part of the IOC bribery scandal that consumed the organization through the late 1990s.
The .999 fineness was a deliberate step above the .900 standard used in earlier Japanese commemorative gold issues.
