| Reverse description | The reverse bears two Chinese characters flanking the central square hole in regular script (kaishu). The character 营 (Yŏng, meaning 'Special Army Unit,' referring to the Ŏyŏngchŏng or Royal Guard Command) appears at the top, serving as the mint mark. The character 木 (Mok, meaning 'tree') appears at the bottom, denoting the second denomination series within this issue. Together these marks identify the coin as a product of the Ŏyŏngchŏng mint, Seoul, struck in 1752. |
