I've been looking around, but I can't seem to find a single image of the physical form of Nuyen. What the heck does Nuyen even look like?

Haven't found many references in the core books to paper nuyen, as most everything having to do with payment or cash is done electronically in Shadowrun. Credsticks (certified or not) or wire transfers are the norm, though you can get by with finding 'paper' corporate scrips, which is basically as good as paper money for most people, as the AAA corps aren't going anywhere anytime soon.
Unless you mean the symbol for it, which is the one for Yen, or '¥'. It's the 'New Yen', which replaced the old currency in the backstory. If you find a picture of it that isn't just done by fans, post it here. But like I said, it's mostly used electronically, so if you wanted an image of what it would look like on the Matrix or something, it would most likely be just the currency's symbol, meaning the ¥.

Apparently there's only a single reference in the entirety of the source material (that i'm aware of) that gives any indication of the appearance of nuyen as hard currency.
"Most transactions use electronic credit, as in the UCAS, though the natives carry limited-use hard currency as well. The Tir prints specially woven, all-natural fiber bills in denominations of 5, 10, 25, 100, and 500 nuyen. All but a small fraction of large transactions use credit. Metal coins of copper and silver alloys come in denominations of one-tenth, one-fourth, and one-half nuyen." -Tir Tairngire sourcebook, page 14
As far as the actual appearance of nuyen in official artwork? Non-existent, apparently.
