Interesting fact
The 1987 South Korean 10,000 Won (Diving) coin is a unique collector's item because it features a diver on the obverse (front side), which is not a common design element on coins. The diver is depicted in a dynamic pose, with their arms outstretched and their body positioned at an angle, giving the impression of movement and dynamism. This design was chosen to commemorate South Korea's hosting of the 1988 Seoul Olympics, where diving was one of the sports featured. The coin's unique design and limited mintage make it a sought-after collectible among numismatists and sports enthusiasts.
