I'm curious why the Japanese yen is designed as a round coin. Is there a specific reason behind this shape? I want to understand the rationale for this choice.

Interestingly, the same character is employed to represent currency in China.

The character carries an additional meaning of 'round,' which is thought to be derived from the historical use of round coins as currency in both China and Japan.

For instance, when writing the amount 300 in Japanese Yen, it is represented as 300 followed by this character.
