Obverse description The State Emblem of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea occupies the central field, depicted in raised relief against a polished background. The emblem features Paektu Mountain framed by a red five-pointed star at its apex, with sheaves of rice bound by a ribbon forming the lower border. Flanking the base of the emblem are two sprigs of foliage in low relief. The Hangul legend 조선민주주의인민공화국 (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) curves along the upper periphery, while the date 2001 and denomination 1 원 appear in bold relief at the lower portion of the field.

Reverse description A naturalistically rendered Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) is depicted in profile, seated and facing left in the centre of the field, accompanied by a smaller cub standing to its left foreground. The animals are set within a sparse woodland landscape, with stylised conifer trees occupying the left and right portions of the field. The legend TIGER curves along the upper border in bold Latin capitals, while WILDLIFE is inscribed in two words along the lower periphery, both in matching relief style.
