OBVERSE

⁣⁢In the foreground, the woman in traditional attire wears a richly decorated kimono, typical of the traditional clothing of the Ryukyu Kingdom's court. 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 part of Shuri Castle in detailed view and the right part 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 sites classified as UNESCO World Heritage on the right. These inscriptions are as if carved in stone, echoing the Rosetta Stone. The left part of the globe is surrounded by the UNESCO logo and the "World Heritage" marking. The face value is inscribed in the left part of the globe, blending perfectly with the parallels and meridians.
