| Reverse description | Central denomination characters 五文 (Five Mun) are presented in bold Hanja script within a beaded inner circle, occupying the central field. Flanking the central circle on either side are two symmetrical sprays of plum blossoms rendered in fine relief, their branches meeting at the base and tied with a decorative ribbon bow. Above the central circle, at the apex, appears a stylised Taeguk (yin-yang) symbol enclosed in a circular frame. The entire composition is contained within a beaded border, with a rope-pattern outer rim completing the design. |
