Yes, the wave is very cool and I was kinda blown away when I found out it is art from Japanese history.

They are quite creative with their silver and I didn't think they would make a wave into a coin.

OF course Hokusai understood visual perspective and the Great wave was not bigger than Mt Fuji in the background, but when it did hit Japan he may just as well made it look that great. Hyperbole no jutsu!
