| Reverse description | The reverse displays a bold high-relief depiction of a shisa — a traditional Okinawan guardian lion-dog figure — shown in a reclining pose atop a rectangular plinth, with its distinctive scaled mane and expressive face rendered in fine detail. The field is otherwise plain, with a rectangular cartouche at the bottom containing the mint inscription in Japanese characters. |
