| Reverse description | Central device featuring the same stylized Daikoku emblem as the obverse, consistent with the double Daikoku type designation. The god of wealth motif is rendered in the standard hammered die format, with the authenticating kanji character '政' (sei, from 'Ansei') struck into the central field to denote the Ansei era of production. The irregular, convex flan surface is characteristic of the mameitagin bean-silver coinage tradition, with the design elements showing slight positional variation relative to the obverse due to the hand-hammering technique. |
