Reverse description The reverse imitates the design of a Japanese 10 yen coin (Y# 73a), featuring the large numeral 10 in the center within a laurel wreath, with the date legend 昭和五十五年 (Showa year 55) inscribed within the wreath below the numeral. The addition of the legend 東京 (Tokyo) appears prominently at the base within the wreath, distinguishing this souvenir token from the genuine coin.
