Japan - 10 Yen 1930 - Pick # 40 - AU

Description

This banknote showcases intricate designs and historical significance, embodying the essence of currency art and security features. The note is stamped with the denomination of 10, accompanied by unique patterns, vibrant colors, and recognizable symbols. Featuring a prominent human figure, this banknote serves not only as a medium of exchange but an artwork that reflects the culture and history of its origin. The craftsmanship involved in producing this piece is evident in its elaborate design and protective measures, such as watermarks and microprinting.


Obverse (front)
The front side of the banknote displays a rich tapestry of colors, predominantly green and black, adorned with intricate floral patterns that signify prosperity. The numeral '10' is prominently featured in the center, encapsulated within an ornate border, highlighting its value. Additionally, the portrait of a distinguished historical figure adds a layer of cultural significance, while the presence of a watermark assures authenticity. Embedded microtext enhances safety features, deterring counterfeiting efforts.

Reverse (back)
The rear side continues the theme of intricate detailing, showcasing repeating motifs and patterns that create a sense of depth. Though not prominently featuring notable imagery, it sports subtle emblems that enhance its identity as legal tender. The color palette, while more subdued, maintains an aesthetic coherence with the front. Elements such as specific ink types might play a role in security, further fortifying the note's resistance to forgery. Overall, the back design complements the historical narrative and artistic integrity of the note.
