| Obverse description | This fantasy note is centred on a vignette of the Sanrio character Pompompurin, the golden retriever mascot rendered in the character's signature yellow colouring. The denomination 10000 is printed at left and right, with the legend BANK OF JAPAN and POMPOMPURIN inscribed across the face. The note carries a stated gold fineness of 999999 in the upper field, underscoring its novelty nature as a gold-foil commemorative piece rather than a legal-tender issue. |

This is a privately issued novelty medal or commemorative piece styled after the Bank of Japan 10,000 yen note — it carries no legal tender status and was never authorized by the Bank of Japan. Sanrio licensed Pompompurin merchandise extensively through the 2010s and 2020s, and gold-plated souvenir "banknotes" of this type were produced by third-party manufacturers, typically sold through character goods retailers and online platforms.
