| Obverse description | Central vignette presents a formal portrait of King Sejong the Great (1397–1450), fourth monarch of the Joseon Dynasty (r. 1418–1450) and creator of the Korean Hangeul script, set against a finely worked guilloche underprint. The denomination and issuing authority appear in Hangul characters, with decorative borders framing the composition on all sides.
