Interesting fact

The 1 Mun (Li script) ND (1097-1107) coin from Korea was used during the Goryeo Dynasty, which was a time of significant cultural and economic development in Korea. The coin features the Li script, which was a writing system used during that period, and its design reflects the influence of Chinese culture on Korean currency at the time. Despite being made of bronze, which was a common material for coins at the time, the 1 Mun coin was still considered a valuable and widely used denomination in its day.
