Interesting fact
The 20 Won (Statsraad Lehmkuhl) 2004 coin from North Korea is unique in that it features a portrait of a Norwegian parliamentarian, Vidkun Quisling, who collaborated with the Nazi regime during World War II. This has led to controversy and debate among numismatists and historians, as Quisling's actions are widely regarded as treasonous and reprehensible.
