| Beschrijving keerzijde | A coloured enamel scene depicting the Antarctic continent rendered as a cartographic outline against a blue polar background with a radiating grid pattern emanating from the South Pole, occupying the upper portion of the inner field. In the lower foreground, a group of coloured sled dogs is depicted in animated poses against a stylised Antarctic landscape with pink and blue tinted snow formations. The peripheral legend in Latin script reads 'R. AMUNDSEN' on the left and 'R. F. SCOTT' on the right, separated by dots, with 'THE WORLD OF ADVENTURE' arching across the upper border. The denomination '500 WON' is inscribed in the lower exergual area. |

North Korea's hard currency commemorative program expanded aggressively through the 1990s as the regime sought foreign exchange during the Arduous March famine — a period in which an estimated 500,000 to 3 million citizens died of starvation. These silver issues were never intended for domestic circulation and were sold exclusively to foreign collectors and dealers, primarily through intermediaries in China and Austria.
