Reverse description Central design depicts the Juche Tower (탑 주체사상탑), a tall obelisk-style monument crowned with a torch flame, rising prominently against a radiating sunburst background. To the left of the tower, a large waving flag bearing the initials of the Down-with-Imperialism Union (ㅌ.ㄷ) in Hangul is shown in relief, with a small sculptural group of figures rendered at its base. The entire composition rests on a tiered platform, and the field is bordered by a ring of raised beads. The Hangul legend '주체사상탑' (Juche Tower) is inscribed along the lower periphery between two small dots.
