| Reverse description | Central depiction of a nine-tailed fox (kitsune), a supernatural creature of East Asian mythology, rendered in finely detailed high relief and shown standing facing the viewer. The creature's nine stylized tails fan outward dramatically, merging with swirling cloud or mist motifs that fill the entire field in a dynamic, flowing composition combining engraved linework with frosted and mirror finishes. A ribbon banner in the lower portion of the field bears the incuse legend NINE-TAILED FOX in stylized lettering. |
