| Beschrijving keerzijde | A detailed depiction of an Asiatic flying squirrel (Petaurista leucogenys) in full glide is rendered in high relief at the center of the field, its patagium extended as it leaps between stylized bare tree branches, one appearing in the upper right and another in the lower left. The naturalistic portrayal captures the animal's distinctive facial features and bushy tail in fine detail against a deeply mirrored proof field. The circular legend 'ENDANGERED WILDLIFE' arcs along the upper periphery, while 'ASIATIC VOLANT' curves along the lower border, both separated by raised dot stops. The composition is enclosed within a raised inner circle, with the legends occupying the outer annulus. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
North Korea's commemorative coinage of the late 1990s and early 2000s was produced almost exclusively for the foreign collector market — hard currency the regime desperately needed following the catastrophic famine of 1994–1998, which killed an estimated 600,000 to 900,000 people. Domestic circulation of such pieces was never the intent.
KM#263 belongs to a broader wildlife series issued through state trading companies, not through any conventional numismatic distribution channel.
