Reverse description The large numeral '10' dominates the upper central field in bold, raised Arabic numerals. Flanking the numeral on either side are two symmetrical sprays of laurel-like foliage, their stems meeting and tied with a decorative bow at the base of the coin. Beneath the numeral, the regnal date inscription in Kanji occupies the lower central field, rendered in the traditional Japanese era format. The composition is well-balanced, with the botanical sprays framing the date legend and meeting at the base in a tied knot motif. A raised border rim encircles the entire design.
