Reverse description The reverse presents a finely detailed scene from traditional Korean folk pastime, depicting two women engaged in the game of neolttwigi (판놀이, seesaw jumping). One woman is shown dramatically airborne in flowing traditional hanbok dress, arms outstretched, while the second woman stands at the opposite end of the plank seesaw, posed in anticipation. A flowering branch adorns the lower left field, adding decorative context evocative of springtime celebration. The legend SEESAWING arcs along the left periphery, with KOREAN FOLK. II inscribed along the right, and the denomination 10 WON appears prominently in the upper right field.
