| Reverse description | The reverse features a predominantly uncolored, mirror-like field with the bold Latin inscription 'National Parks of Japan' displayed in two lines at the center upper field. Beneath this legend, the official colored logo of the National Parks of Japan — a stylized square emblem rendered in a gradient of red and blue — occupies the central position. Encircling the design along the periphery, a continuous legend reads '国立公園制度１００年' (100 Years of the National Park System) in Chinese characters and numerals across the upper arc, with '・１０００YEN・令和８年・' distributed around the lower arc, recording the denomination and the Reiwa 8 (2026) regnal year. |

| Additional information |
Part of Japan's ongoing 47 Prefectures Coin Program, which began in 2008 under the Cabinet Office's regional promotion initiative, this Ōita Prefecture issue covers Aso Kujū National Park — a volcanic highland straddling Ōita and Kumamoto prefectures and home to one of the largest calderas on earth. The series rotates through all 47 prefectures in a fixed sequence, meaning collectors with gaps cannot simply wait for a reissue.
Sales are conducted through Japan Post rather than general coin dealers, a distribution method that has historically kept secondary market premiums modest on common issues in the series.
