| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central field features a large, stylized paulownia flower (kiri mon), the Government Seal of Japan, depicted in low molded relief with three flower clusters rising from broad foliage, filling the majority of the field. Three kanji characters reading 本 日 大 (Great Japan) are arranged in a horizontal legend across the upper portion of the field, flanked by smaller floral ornaments. A two-line horizontal legend in the lower field reads 年 十 二 和 昭 (Shōwa Year 20), recording the reign era date corresponding to 1945. The overall design is characteristic of the emergency wartime porcelain coinage program, executed with the characteristic matte texture of fired white ceramic. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Japan's wartime material shortages pushed the mint toward increasingly unconventional solutions by 1944–45. Copper and aluminum had long been diverted to the military, and this porcelain 10 Sen — fired ceramic rather than struck metal — was one of the most radical emergency coinage experiments any major nation attempted during the Second World War. Production was never completed before the surrender in August 1945, and these pieces did not enter circulation.
The KM#Pn79 designation places it firmly in pattern territory. Surviving examples come almost exclusively from mint holdings distributed after the war's end.
