| Obverse description | Obverse presents the characteristic surface of a cast silver chōgin ingot, displaying a series of pronounced horizontal ridges and undulating furrows across the entire field, produced by the traditional casting and working technique. The roughly oval, elongated form tapers toward rounded ends, with the silver surface exhibiting a naturally mottled, granular texture typical of early Japanese silver currency. No inscriptions, symbols, or die-applied marks are present on this face. |
