| Reverse description | Irregular rectangular silver flan with rounded corners, the outer border decorated with a continuous row of raised hemispherical bosses or pellets forming a prominent beaded frame around the entire perimeter. A raised rectangular cartouche is set within the central field, containing three Kanji characters hammered in bold relief reading vertically: 福 (fuku), 知 (chi), and 山 (yama), spelling 'Fukuchiyama,' the name of the issuing domain. A small decorative cruciform or lozenge-shaped punch mark is impressed near the top of the cartouche, likely serving as an authenticating or assayer's stamp. The field within the cartouche displays fine parallel striations from the hammering process, consistent with late Bakumatsu-era domain silver coinage. |
