Comment
The image on the reverse side of the coin is based on the artwork of the the 19th-century Japanese ukiyo-e artist, Utagawa Hiroshige. Hiroshige's woodblock print titled Taira no Kiyomori's Spectral Vision depicts the samurai Taira no Kiyomori as a veteran of battle in the later stages of his life. As he looks out over the snow-covered garden from the veranda of his palace home, he is haunted by visions of the skeletons of his many slain enemies.Interesting fact
