| Reverse description | A detailed frontal view of the Dabotap (Many Treasures Pagoda) of Bulguksa Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is rendered in fine relief at the centre of the field. The multi-tiered stone pagoda with its characteristic ornate stone base and stairways is depicted with architectural precision. To the lower right, the Seoul 1988 Olympic emblem — comprising the samtaeguk motif above the five Olympic rings — appears in the field. The curved legend XXIV OLYMPIAD SEOUL 1988 arcs along the upper rim, and the denomination 50000 WON is inscribed along the lower rim. |
