| Obverse description | Central field depicts a Portuguese nau (carrack) rendered in the Namban artistic style, sailing toward the Japanese coastline shown at left. The design reflects the visual conventions of 16th-century Japanese Namban screens, with stylized waves and bold compositional elements. The encircling legend, separated from the field by a beaded border, bears the Latin name of the republic above and the Japanese name of the island in kanji characters, with the commemorative dates 1543 and 1993 at the base. |
