Obverse description The state emblem of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea occupies the central field, depicting a hydroelectric power station beneath a radiant five-pointed star, framed by sheaves of rice tied with a ribbon bearing the inscription of the republic. The weight '7g' appears in the lower left field and the fineness '999' in the lower right field. The Hangul legend 'CENTRAL BANK OF THE DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF KOREA' encircles the emblem along the upper periphery, while two sprigs of rice flank the date '1995' at the base.

To the upper left, the Olympic torch and rings emblem appears, while a classical columned building — evoking the Parthenon — is visible in the right field background. The legend 'OLYMPIC GAMES 1996' arcs along the upper periphery in Latin characters, and the denomination '100WON' is boldly inscribed in the lower field beneath the athlete's feet.
