The 1 Won (Black Grouse) 2001 coin from North Korea features a unique design, with the Black Grouse bird depicted on the obverse side, while the reverse side features the National Emblem of North Korea. This coin is a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not intended for general circulation and was instead produced for collectors or special occasions.
