This is the second issue with two characters meaning "Cho-son" for Korea. This one was acquired in the early '50's. The reverse is heavily doubled! These coins are rather scarce in any condition and particularly so in AU and higher. I do not know how prevalent doubling is or how it affects the value.
Finally! An excellent work on Korean coins in English. It also describes the entire history of Korea in relation to their coinage. Past erroneous information is corrected and details of varieties are clearly illustrated. This is an amazing resource for numismatists and collectors. I thank Calvin Taehun Jin at Arirang Numismatics, and you will too. Read and Free Download "Coinage of Late Modern Korea" at this: [ link ]
