Comment
Minted in North KoreaInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it commemorates Roald Amundsen, a Norwegian explorer who was the first person to reach the South Pole. The coin's design features an image of Amundsen standing on the South Pole, surrounded by the flags of the nations that participated in the expedition. The coin was issued in 2009, the 100th anniversary of Amundsen's historic achievement.
