Description on the reverse: The Japanese word for monkey, ‘saru’, is a homonym for the Japanese word ‘expel’ (also pronounced saru), meaning ‘dispel’ or ‘push away’. This has given the monkey a sacred symbolism as a guardian against negativity and misfortune. The persimmon is used as a symbol of transformation. The green persimmon transforms from being acrid and bitter, ripening to its full sweetness. In buddhism it relates the ignorance of people transforming into wisdom.
