- Monetized and Guaranteed By Government Of Japan
- Introducing the Heisei-era 1000 Yen commemorative coin honoring Miyagi prefecture, a testament to Japan's rich historical tapestry and cultural significance. Crafted with meticulous detail and precision by the renowned Japan Mint, this non-circulating silver coin weighs 31.1 grams, boasts a diameter of 40.0 mm, and features a striking round shape with slanted reeding on its edge.
- On the obverse side, the coin captures the essence of Miyagi prefecture through two iconic symbols: the Statue of Date Masamune at Sendai Castle and the historic ship used by the Keichō Embassy to Europe in 1613.
- Date Masamune, a revered samurai lord of the Edo period, is immortalized in bronze atop Sendai Castle, a testament to his leadership over the Sendai Domain, encompassing present-day Miyagi. The colorized rendition brings these historical figures and events to life, with inscriptions in Japanese denoting "日本国" (Japan), "宮城県" (Miyagi prefecture), and the coin's denomination, "千円" (1000 yen).
- Flipping to the reverse, traditional Japanese motifs grace the coin, including cherry blossoms, crescents, and intricately designed snowflakes. Embedded within the largest snowflake are latent images, enhancing both aesthetics and security measures. Inscriptions mark the 60th anniversary of Japan's Local Autonomy Law with "(47/60) 地方自治六十年" (60 years of local autonomy), alongside "1000 YEN" and "平成25年" (Year 25 of Heisei), signifying the year of issue.
- This commemorative coin not only celebrates Miyagi prefecture's historical legacy but also pays homage to its pivotal role in Japanese history. From Date Masamune's influential leadership to the Keichō Embassy's voyage bridging cultures, Miyagi's enduring cultural contributions are encapsulated in this exquisite numismatic treasure.
- Ideal for collectors and history enthusiasts alike, the Heisei-era 1000 Yen coin from Miyagi prefecture stands as a proud symbol of Japan's heritage and the enduring spirit of local autonomy.
