Issued to mark the new millennium, this 20,000 Won piece was part of South Korea's broader commemorative program surrounding the year 2000. The denomination itself — 20,000 Won — has no circulating equivalent in Korean currency and exists solely in the commemorative series, a deliberate choice that separates these pieces from any confusion with everyday coinage.
