The Japan Mint takes up famous historical characters as the subjects of medals, manufacturing and selling these as a series of “portrait medals.”
In 2012, the featured character was Futabayama, the 35th yokozuna grand champion of sumo, who was born 100 years ago this year.
Futabayama (whose real name was Akiyoshi Sadaji), was born in Usa District (now Usa City), Oita Prefecture, and was one of the most famous grand champions of the Showa era, achieving an unprecedented record of 69 consecutive wins between 1936 and 1939. This outstanding feat has yet to be bettered today.
Hakuho, the 69th yokozuna, who came close to Futabayama's record in 2010 with 63 consecutive wins, was also known to have great respect for Futabayama, visiting Usa Shrine in his home town in November 2011 and performing a ring-entering ceremony there.
