| Obverse description | The obverse is divided into two sections: the left portion bears a registration panel with vertical columns of Japanese text indicating fields for name, address, serial number, and date of receipt, with a vertical signature inscription along the right edge of the panel. The right portion carries the central vignette — a chrysanthemum crest set within a decorative octagonal frame, with the numeral '5' below and the denomination legend in kanji and 'SEN' in Latin characters beneath, all set against a fine orange-red geometric guilloche background. |
