Interesting fact

The 5 Won (Mountbatten SR-N4) 2000 coin from North Korea is unique because it features a portrait of Lord Mountbatten, a British statesman and naval officer, on one side, and the North Korean coat of arms on the other. This is interesting because Lord Mountbatten had no apparent connection to North Korea, and it is unusual for a country to feature a foreign leader on its currency. It is also one of the few coins produced by North Korea that does not depict one of its leaders, such as Kim Il-sung or Kim Jong-il.
