Anmerkungen

The 10 Jeon was part of a low-denomination series issued following the 1962 currency reform — the same reform that replaced the Hwan with the Won at a ratio of 10 to 1. These fractional notes were a practical necessity while the new coinage was being minted in sufficient quantity to meet demand, but their useful life was always going to be short. Most circulated heavily and were retired within a few years.

Surviving examples in decent condition are genuinely uncommon precisely because the denomination attracted no collector interest at the time.
