| Obverse description | Central view of the Taedong Gate (Taedongmun), a historic East Gate in Pyongyang, rendered in fine detail with its multi-tiered traditional Korean roof structure and stone base. The Korean legend reading the full title of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea encircles the upper field. The denomination '10 WON' appears in the lower right and the date '2007' in the lower left, flanking the gate, separated by a five-pointed star at the bottom of the field. |

| Additional information |
North Korea has issued commemorative aluminum pieces in small quantities since the 1980s, largely for foreign currency exchange and collector export rather than domestic circulation — ordinary North Koreans have never meaningfully encountered them. The lunar year series, of which this is part, was produced with hard-currency sales in mind, targeting diaspora collectors and Western numismatic dealers through state-controlled trade channels.
KM#610 corresponds to the 2007 Pig year issue.
