| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dynamic commemorative composition celebrating the launch of the Kwangmyongsong-1 satellite. A stylised launch rocket is depicted at the left, rising vertically against a global grid background, while the Kwangmyongsong-1 satellite is shown in orbit above a relief map of the Korean peninsula, rendered with selective blue enamel colouring. A small five-pointed star marks Pyongyang on the map, and the launch date '98.8.31' appears in the right field. The denomination '10 WON' is inscribed in the lower field. The circular Latin legend 'ARTIFICIAL EARTH SATELLITE KWANGMYONGSONG-1. DPR OF KOREA' runs along the upper rim. |
