The 2020 Japan National Treasure Jisho-ji Commemorative Gold Medal is an exceptionally rare and highly sought-after numismatic release, especially given its limited availability outside Japan. Here are the key highlights and details about this unique collectible: Key Features: Representation of Japanese Culture: The medal celebrates Jisho-ji, also known as the Silver Pavilion (Ginkaku-ji), a renowned temple in Kyoto that exemplifies traditional Japanese architecture and garden design. Depicted on the medal are iconic elements of Jisho-ji, such as Kannon Hall, Kogetsudai (moon viewing platform), Ginshadan (a sea of sand), Togudo Hall (Japan’s oldest tea ceremony room), and a pond. Material and Purity: Struck in 45 grams of 99.9% pure gold, this medal is a testament to high craftsmanship and quality. Global Exclusivity: Out of the total mintage of 1,100 medals, only 25 pieces (approximately 2.3%) are available for overseas collectors, making this a rare opportunity for those outside Japan. Packaging and Presentation: Each medal is accompanied by original mint packaging, including a wooden display box made from Paulownia trees, which are culturally significant in Japan and symbolize good luck. A Certificate of Authenticity from the Japan Mint is also included. Why Collectors Should Act Quickly: Limited Availability: With only 25 pieces allocated for overseas distribution and just 20 available for purchase through this specific offer, competition among collectors is expected to be fierce. Historical Significance: This is the first time in the history of Japan Mint’s National Treasure Medal series that a portion of the mintage has been offered outside Japan, making this release a milestone event. Cultural Value: The medal encapsulates Japanese history, artistry, and reverence for its natural and architectural treasures, appealing to both numismatists and enthusiasts of Japanese culture.
