The 1 Won (Training Ships) 2000 coin from North Korea features a unique design that showcases the country's naval capabilities. The obverse side of the coin depicts a training ship, while the reverse side features the national emblem of North Korea. This coin is interesting because it highlights the importance of naval training and education in North Korean society.
