Reverse description A symmetrical wreath composed of Hollyhock (Mallow) blossoms and foliage frames the central field, with two large blooms flanking either side and leafy sprays extending around the upper and lower periphery. At the center, the kanji character 円 (Yen) appears in bold relief, deliberately omitting any numeral denomination, consistent with the pattern nature of the piece. The field within the wreath is plain and polished, and the design is bounded by a raised rim. The overall composition is bold and deeply struck, characteristic of a presentation or trial piece.
