| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a colorized design inspired by Bingata, the traditional Okinawan resist-dyeing craft technique, depicting two vivid red Deigo (Erythrina variegata) blossoms with green leaves set against flowing stylized water patterns rendered in teal, turquoise, and gold hues, evoking the aesthetic of classical Ryukyuan textile art. The commemorative legend 沖縄復帰五十年 (50th Anniversary of the Reversion of Okinawa) is inscribed prominently across the upper field. The denomination 1000 YEN and the reign date 令和4年 (Year 4 of Reiwa) are inscribed in the lower left field. |

Issued to mark the 50th anniversary of Okinawa's reversion to Japanese administration on May 15, 1972, this coin commemorates the conclusion of a U.S. occupation that began with the Battle of Okinawa in 1945 and persisted long after the 1952 San Francisco Peace Treaty restored sovereignty to mainland Japan. Okinawa was deliberately excluded from that settlement, retained by Washington as a strategic Pacific base during the Cold War under the continued authority of the United States Civil Administration of the Ryukyu Islands.
Negotiations for reversion stretched through the late 1960s, with Prime Minister Sato securing agreement from Nixon in 1969 on the condition that American military bases remain. The handover happened, but the bases never left.
