    My mother has had in her possession for 20+ years these bills. I've done some research and was wondering how much these are worth. I would greatly appreciate it if some one could give me a good answer or at least point me in the right direction.
    To me, they look in good condition for the most part.
    Here are the fronts and backs to 3 of them that she has:

    These 3 banknotes are from South Korea all from the 1950's, obviously someone in the family was serving out there during the war?

    The first note is the P20 500 HWAN (1956-57), the second is the P13 10 WON (1953) and the third is the P19 100 HWAN (1954-56)

    I don't collect banknotes from this region so can't tell you anything about the value but would suggest a quck search on EBay to give you a feel for what they go for? Or google for any dealers who specialise in this region?

    Quck search through a dealer that I use and I found these

    13 10 won (1953) . . . . . . . . . . VG 9.00, VF 80.00
    19a 100 won 4287 (1954). . . . . . . F 15.00, VF 75.00
    19b 100 won 4288 (1955). . . . . . .VG- 6.00, VF 65.00
    19c 100 won 4289 (1956). . . . . . . . . . . UN 450.00
