| Reverse description | The large numeral '500' is prominently displayed in the center of the field, flanked on either side by sprigs of Tachibana orange (Citrus tachibana) rendered with detailed fruit and foliage. A spray of bamboo occupies the upper portion of the design, its characteristic jointed stems and narrow leaves arching gracefully above the numeral. The reign-era date in Japanese characters appears along the lower field below the central numeral. The design is framed by a beaded inner border. |
