| Beschrijving voorzijde | The national arms of South Korea — the taeguk symbol encircled by a floral wreath and surmounted by five decorative elements — is depicted centrally within a circular frame at the upper field, with the inscription '대한민국' (Republic of Korea) on a banner below the arms. A spray of hibiscus syriacus (mugunghwa), the national flower of South Korea, fills the lower portion of the field in high relief. A circular Korean-script legend surrounds the upper rim, while the date 1987 and the denomination in Korean characters appear along the lower rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued to commemorate the 1988 Seoul Olympics, this piece was part of a broader Korean commemorative program spanning several years of lead-up issues. South Korea used the Games aggressively as an international coming-out moment following decades of authoritarian government and economic reconstruction after the Korean War. The commemorative coin program was one of several state-directed initiatives designed to signal financial maturity to foreign markets.
.925 fineness was an unusual choice for a prestige issue at the time, deviating from the .999 standard most national mints were adopting through the 1980s.
