| Obverse description | Central vignette shows a group of four figures — a soldier, a young bugler, a woman, and a child holding flowers — set against an urban skyline with modern buildings in the background, rendered in a socialist-realist style. The national emblem of the DPRK appears in the upper left corner, with the date 1978 to its right, and Korean-script inscriptions for the issuing authority along the left margin. The denomination appears in Korean script at lower right, with serial numbers printed in red at both left and right, above a guilloche underprint with floral motifs. |
