Characters are rendered in raised relief with calligraphic brushwork, set against a plain, unadorned field within a plain raised rim. |

| Additional information |
The "Kusku Sinja" designation refers to a category of Taiwanese good-luck tokens issued in the first year of Japan's Reiwa imperial era — a calendar system Taiwan does not officially use, but which persists informally in commercial and ceremonial contexts due to the island's decades under Japanese rule and the cultural residue that followed. These bronze pieces circulate not as currency but as gift and auspice tokens, particularly around the Lunar New Year.
