| Reverse description | Stamped depiction of Daikoku, mirroring the obverse composition, with the deity shown seated upon two bales of rice (tawara) rendered in horizontal striated bands. The rotund figure wears the characteristic eboshi cap surmounted by a decorative finial, with a large treasure sack visible over the shoulder and a flowering branch or sacred plant to one side. The image is struck in low relief using the traditional hammered mameitagin stamp technique, with bold stylized lines characteristic of Edo-period silver coinage. The double appearance of Daikoku on both faces gives this issue its distinctive 'Futatsuhō' (double-stamp) designation. |
