| Reverse description | Central design features a large stylized snowflake occupying the primary field, incorporating a latent image security device within its largest element. Surrounding the central motif are sprays of cherry blossoms and a crescent form, evoking the natural imagery associated with Miyagi Prefecture. Additional smaller snowflakes are distributed across the field. The legend records the commemorative theme of 60 years of local autonomy, the denomination in both numerals and the word YEN, and the date expressed in the Japanese imperial Heisei era notation. |
