Interesting fact

The 10 Won coin from North Korea, issued in 2018 to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the issuance of commemorative coins, features an image of the Juche Tower, a prominent landmark in Pyongyang, on its obverse side. The Juche Tower is a symbol of the country's Juche ideology, which emphasizes self-reliance and independence. The coin's reverse side features a stylized image of the number 30, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This coin is made of copper-nickel and has a diameter of 38.61 mm. It is a non-circulating coin, meaning it is not intended for general circulation and is primarily sought after by collectors.
