| Reverse description | The large numeral '50' dominates the center of the reverse, rendered in bold relief within a distinctive fundō (balance weight) shaped cartouche formed by two concave arcs meeting at top and bottom. The regnal era name 昭和 (Shōwa) is inscribed in two kanji across the upper arc, while the Japanese-numeral year of issue appears along the lower arc. A fine beaded border encircles the entire design. The overall composition is clean and graphic, emphasizing the denomination within its characteristic hourglass-shaped frame. |
