| Reverse description | The reverse features a vivid full-colour applied print depicting the three wise monkeys — Mizaru, Kikazaru, and Iwazaru — seated in a row on a ledge, each performing their characteristic gesture: covering the eyes, ears, and mouth respectively. The monkeys are rendered with naturalistic detail in warm brown tones set against a panoramic background of a cityscape to the left and lush green foliage to the right. The date 2014 appears in the lower left field in coloured numerals, serving as the sole legend on this face. |
