| Reverse description | Central field bearing the large kanji character 寳 (Treasure/Hō), boldly struck within the stylized Daikoku device, which is composed of conventionalized pictographic elements including a prominent oval boss at the apex and surrounding oval rice-grain pellets in relief. A radiating fan-shaped crown motif surmounts the composition at the top, while a sweeping curved line to the right represents a traditional decorative element. The lower register is divided by a horizontal bar above a row of stylized grass or wave ornaments, consistent across the Mameitagin series. The size of the 寳 character distinguishes the two known varieties: large 寳 (Daiji) and small 寳 (Shōji). |
