Interesting fact
The 1 Mun coin from Korea, which was minted between 1423 and 1425, features a unique design that reflects the country's cultural and religious beliefs during that time. The obverse side of the coin depicts a stylized representation of the Korean peninsula, surrounded by four symbols that represent the four directions: a dragon for the east, a tiger for the west, a phoenix for the south, and a tortoise for the north. These symbols were chosen for their significance in Korean mythology and astrology, and they are still used in Korean culture today.
