| Obverse description | Obverse reproduces the design of the historic Joseon Kingdom 20 Warn pattern of 1884, issued under King Gojong. Two confronted dragons are depicted in high relief, flanking a central medallion, with the reign-era date inscribed above and the denomination rendered in both Chinese characters and romanized script below. The inscription reads 大朝鮮 開國四百九十五年, denoting the Joseon founding year equivalent to 1884. The overall composition reflects the classical East Asian heraldic style of late 19th-century Korean coinage. |
