| Beschrijving keerzijde | Dramatic high-relief portrait of the Korean naval commander Yi Sun-shin, depicted in three-quarter view wearing traditional Korean scale armour (dujungaes) and a decorated military helmet bearing a central emblem. The admiral's fierce expression, braided beard, and fur-trimmed pauldrons are rendered in exceptional sculptural detail. He grasps a sword hilt in his gauntleted right hand, with the blade bearing Korean Hanja inscriptions visible in the lower left field. A battle scene featuring soldiers and warriors is rendered in lower relief across the background, evoking the admiral's celebrated naval campaigns against Japanese forces during the Imjin War. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Yi Sun-shin commanded the Joseon naval forces during the Japanese invasions of Korea (1592–1598), a conflict known in Korean as the Imjin War. His deployment of the turtle ship — one of the earliest ironclad warships in documented naval history — repeatedly broke Japanese supply lines despite Korea being catastrophically outmatched on land. He was killed by a stray musket ball at the Battle of Noryang in 1598, the final engagement of the war, reportedly telling aides to conceal his death until the battle was won.
