| Beschrijving keerzijde | Facing bust of Dangun Wanggeom, the legendary founder of Gojoseon (Kochosun), depicted as a bearded elder wearing a traditional patterned cap, set against a mirror-polished field. Archaic Korean characters are arranged in the field to either side of the effigy. A decorative zigzag border frames the inner design. The inscription '고강산관광기념' (Kumgangsan tourism commemorative) appears along the upper border, while the legend '시조단군5000' (Founder Dangun 5000) is inscribed at the base of the design, referencing the 5,000-year heritage of ancient Korea. |

Gojoseon — rendered here as "Kochosun" in older DPRK romanization — is the legendary Korean kingdom said to have been founded in 2333 BC by Tangun, a figure central to Korean nationalist mythology and one the North Korean state has instrumentalized heavily since the 1990s. In 1993, Pyongyang announced the alleged discovery of Tangun's tomb near the capital, a claim rejected by virtually every archaeologist outside the DPRK.
This brass commemorative was issued as part of a broad series celebrating Korean antiquity, produced primarily for the export collector market rather than domestic circulation.
