| Reverse description | A traditionally dressed Korean woman is depicted seated in the field, operating a wooden spinning wheel, with a basket of silkworm cocoons beside her — an allegory of Korean craft heritage and industry. The scene is rendered in fine relief with careful attention to period costume and the mechanical detail of the spinning apparatus. The legend 'TAEJON EXPO '93 KOREA' arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination '5000 WON' appears in the lower exergue, both in Latin lettering. |
