The medals have a distinctive, hammered finish that replicates the visual appearance of historic Oban coins issued in Japan as early as 1588. Additionally, each medal has hand-applied ink on the Japanese inscriptions and the Kiri stamps that are featured on both sides of this modern commemorative medal.

Obverse design elements on the 2 oz Oban Silver Medal include the image of three Kiri stamps, each one finished with red ink. The inscriptions have a black-ink finish.

These silver medals are finished with a 24-karat gold layer to complete the replicated appearance of an original Oban coin.

Oban is a Japanese term for a gold plate that was issued as a form of currency in Japan during the Tokugawa coinage. This system offered a three-tiered monetary policy that included gold, silver, and bronze coins, with the Oban being the largest.
