Five-Yen Coin Pagoda

This vintage Japanese Pagoda depicting Kyoto’s To-ji Temple, standing 53 cm tall and made of 5-yen coins, promises its owner’s business prosperity.

The five-yen coin is distinguished by its central hole, which could be utilized in the design of such a structure. This pagoda is an example of an artistic craft that leverages the unique shape and features of the five-yen coins to create a miniature architectural model. The detailed construction and the way the coins are arranged to form the different levels and eaves of the pagoda highlight the creativity involved in such a project.
