Hello everyone, here is only talk about the banknote of the hanabi of banknotes encyclopedia, I am hanabi.
At the beginning of this issue, we will talk about a single variety of Yen banknotes, starting with this 10,000 yen note.
With a face value of 10,000 yen, this is the latest version of the E-numbered note, which was first issued on November 1, 2004, and is the largest banknote in the yen in circulation, which is about equal to 593 yuan at the current exchange rate.
In addition to the current E number, there are also C number coupons and D number coupons, a total of three versions. Although C-number and D-numbered coupons are no longer issued, they are still valid negotiable currencies.

The banknote is 160mm long and 76mm wide, which is about the same width and 5mm longer than RMB100 (155mm×77mm).
The front portrait of the banknote follows the portrait of Fukuzawa Yukichi of the D coupon, and from 1984 onwards, nearly 40 years have used Fukuzawa Yukichi as a positive portrait, so Japanese folk often nickname the 10,000 yuan banknote as "Yuki", and sometimes use the number of people to allude to the amount, such as "3 people" equals 30,000 yuan, "5 people" equals 50,000 yuan, and so on.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="10" > Fukuzawa</h1>
Fukuzawa Yukichi (1835-1901) was an important modern Japanese enlightenment thinker and educator, the first president of the Tokyo Bachelor's Association, and the founder of Keio Yoshijuku University, a prestigious private university in Japan.
He put forward the famous theory of "breaking away from Asia and entering Europe" and is considered to be one of the most famous thinkers in modern Japan. His major works include "Introduction to the Theory of Civilization" and "Persuasion", which systematically expounded his ideas.
Fukuzawa was also the first to introduce the basic "double-entry bookkeeping method" of accounting to Japan. The terms "debit" and "credit" were also first translated by Fukuzawa. He was also the first to introduce the modern insurance system to Japan.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="14" > Phoenix Hall</h1>
On the back of the banknote is a phoenix statue of the Phoenix Hall of the Temple of Equality.
Kodo-in Temple is a Buddhist temple in Uji, Kyoto Province, Japan, built in 1053 as an early Japanese wooden structure believed to be the ultimate embodiment of the Western paradise of the ancient Japanese.
The most representative building of the ancient Temple of Equality is the Amitabha Hall, which was originally named after the statue of Amitabha Rulai and the 52 statues of bodhisattvas in the clouds, and later because of the appearance of Amitabha Hall, which seems to fly birds with wings, and there are two golden and bronze phoenix statues with honorific symbols along the ridge of the middle hall, so in the Edo period, it was renamed "Phoenix Hall".
The Phoenix Hall, a national treasure of painting, architecture, craftsmanship and sculpture, was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994 as part of the ruins of ancient Kyoto.
In addition to the Phoenix Hall motif on the 10,000 yen banknote, the 10 yen coin also has its motif, which shows the important meaning of the Phoenix Hall to the Yamato nation.
Let's look at other design elements of the front-back face.
On the front, there are Kanji characters such as Bank of Japan Bills, Bank of Japan, and the National Printing Bureau, as well as stamps with the words "Seal of the President". There is a Braille pattern in each of the two corners below the banknote.
In the upper middle of the back is the Latin alphabet pinyin of "Bank of Japan", the upper left corner is the bank of Japan emblem, and the lower right corner is the seal of the word "Issuer Of Bonds".
There are two versions of the number: one is black, which was released on November 1, 2004. After the black number segment was exhausted, it was re-numbered in brown and released on July 19, 2011.
I have brown, indicating that it was printed after 2011.
The above is the design elements on the front and back of the banknote, and then look at the anti-counterfeiting.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="27" > anti-counterfeiting technology</h1>
The anti-counterfeiting of yen banknotes can be identified from four aspects: watermark, changing angle, using tools and touching.
Black and white watermark
The banknotes of the E-coupon have two kinds of watermarks, that is, a white watermark that is located in the middle blank space. In addition, there is a white watermark on the right side of the front of the banknote, which is a rectangular pattern of three 2x17mm vertical arrangement.
Latent image
The latent image is also called refractive hidden image, and its pattern is based on gravure printing technology, which is produced by the three-dimensional shading effect produced by the vertical pattern of the ink on the paper and the observation of the angle change. Tilting the banknote will reveal the number "10000" in the lower left of the front of the banknote.
hologram
The hologram is a holographic laser film block attached to the banknote, changing the angle can see different colorful clusters, and the holographic pattern on the 10,000 yen banknote changes with the angle of 3 kinds of patterns, namely the numbers "10000", "cherry blossoms", "Bank of Japan emblem". In addition, the hologram is printed with hidden miniature words "day" and "ben" on top and bottom, which are extremely difficult to detect.
Pearlescent inks
Pearlescent ink has a pearl-like luster, the glitter effect is magnificent, and the changing angle is observed brightly and changeablely. The center of the left and right ends of the 10,000 yen banknote is a pink lustrous pearlescent ink.
Miniature text
The 10,000 yen banknote has a number of places with a large number of "NIPPON GINKO" printed on the obverse.
Fluorescent inks
Fluorescent ink is a fluorescein blended by chemical elements, which is observed in ultraviolet light to present a beautiful fluorescent pattern, and the red "President's Seal" on the surface of the banknote excites the yellow fluorescent effect under the illumination of ultraviolet light sources.
Intaglio printing
The deep gravure printing pattern on the 10,000 yen banknote is fine and clear, the ink layer is convex from the paper, the depth is full, with a unique three-dimensional effect, and there will be a strong sense of bump when touching the intaglio part with your hand.
E-coupon banknotes have been issued for 16 years, and their anti-counterfeiting technology is not an advanced anti-counterfeiting feature today, but thanks to the special paper, super watermark and ultra-precision printing of yen banknotes, the yen counterfeiting rate has been very low.
The above content is a brief introduction to the design and anti-counterfeiting of 10,000 yen, and there are many points where there are deficiencies.
After reading by the way, like attention, the unpopular circle needs your encouragement.
