| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dramatic anime-style scene depicting the Japanese folk hero Momotaro standing at the prow of a wooden boat, rendered in high relief. Momotaro is shown in traditional armour, brandishing a naginata and a banner, with his three legendary companions — a monkey holding an oar to the left, a dog seated to the right, and a pheasant in flight above — accompanying him across turbulent, stylised waves reminiscent of ukiyo-e woodblock prints. Radiating sunbeams fill the upper background, creating a dynamic composition. The outer border mirrors the geometric tapa-cloth patterning of the obverse. |
