How This Works

The whole-number part is spelled out and paired with the currency's major unit (Yen, or Yen for exactly one), then the decimal part is converted the same way and paired with the minor unit (Sen). This is the same format used on checks and formal documents โ€” including the trailing "Only," which is standard practice to prevent anyone adding extra digits after the written amount.
