OBVERSE

⁣⁢In the foreground, the woman in traditional attire wears a richly decorated kimono, typical of the traditional court clothing of the Ryukyu Kingdom. This attire recalls the garments worn by nobles or members of the kingdom's royal family, of which Shuri was the political and cultural center. The specific headdress
was used during important ceremonies, such as royal weddings or state events. In the background, the left side of Shuri Castle in detailed view and the right side in a schematic outline of the structure to evoke its construction/reconstruction.⁤⁣

REVERSE

The reverse is common to all coins in this year's UNESCO series, 2020. It depicts the globe with parallels and meridians on the left and inscriptions of major UNESCO World Heritage sites on the right. These inscriptions are as if carved in stone, echoing the Rosetta Stone. The left side of the globe is surrounded by the UNESCO logo and the "World Heritage" marking. The face value is inscribed on the left side of the globe, blending perfectly with the parallels and meridians.
