| Reverse description | Plain and featureless reverse displaying the characteristic flat, slightly granular surface of a sand-cast copper coin. A central square hole with raised rims on all four sides is flanked by an undecorated field. The outer rim is raised and plain, and the overall surface retains the coarse texture typical of Japanese cast mon coinage of the late sixteenth century, with no inscriptions, symbols, or decorative elements present. |
