Reverse description The reverse displays the Hanja characters '一 兩' (One Yang) prominently in the open central field, rendered in a bold, formal script. The denomination is framed by a decorative wreath composed of flowering and fruiting branches — likely plum blossoms and other native Korean flora — tied at the base with a ribbon bow. At the apex of the wreath, a five-petalled plum blossom rosette serves as a crowning ornament, a motif associated with the Joseon royal house. The design is contained within a beaded inner circle and surrounded by a fine toothed outer border. The field is smooth and unlettered beyond the central characters.
