Beschrijving voorzijde Central device depicts a detailed high-relief rendering of the Taedong Gate or a traditional Korean pavilion structure, shown in three-quarter perspective atop a stone-terraced platform with surrounding vegetation. The circular legend around the upper periphery reads in Korean characters '조선민주주의인민공화국중앙은행' (Central Bank of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea). The denomination '20 WON' appears in Latin characters along the lower rim. The field is polished to a mirror-like proof finish, providing strong contrast against the frosted relief elements.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse depicts three triathlon disciplines arranged across the field: a cyclist in racing posture at lower left, two runners in competition attire at centre, and a swimmer executing a freestyle stroke at right. In the lower portion of the field, a detailed panoramic view of Taesongsan Fortress (대성산성) is rendered with its characteristic stone walls and traditional gate pavilions. The legend 'SUMMER GAMES 2008' arcs along the upper periphery in Latin characters; the Chinese characters '三项赛' (triathlon) appear at centre right; the Korean inscription '대성산성' identifies the fortress below the central scene, and the date '2008' is inscribed in the lower field.

Aanvullende informatie

North Korea issued a series of commemorative brass pieces tied to international sporting events during the 2000s, largely targeting the foreign collector market through state-run export channels rather than domestic circulation. Hard currency generation, not numismatic tradition, drove the program.

KM#1168 is one of dozens of similar issues from this period, many sharing dies or planchets across different nominal denominations.
