Decorative coins? Nope, Japanese manhole covers from the Okachin Manhole Cover Gallery, which is over a thousand images deep. If you're going to make your living climbing down into sewers, you may as well have something pretty to look at on the way in.

What's the deal with the Nazi emblem second to left?! I like the one with colors, wonder how long they last.
Is that a swazticka in an apple? Did i spell swazticka right?
These are beautiful. That's what I call municipal attention to detail.
The swastika is an ancient symbol in Japan that has no connection to fascist nationalism in Europe. To quote from Wikipedia:
The symbol as it is used in Buddhist art and scripture is known in Japanese as a manji (literally, "the character for eternality" 萬字), and represents Dharma, universal harmony, and the balance of opposites. When facing left, it is the omote (front) manji, representing love and mercy. Facing right, it represents strength and intelligence, and is called the ura (rear) manji. Balanced manji are often found at the beginning and end of Buddhist scriptures (outside India).
what's with the nazi insignia on the apple manhole?
Hang a manhole cover on your wall!!
I make art from manhole covers, you can see designs from old New York and London, you can also have them in your own colours matching taste or interior project.
