<p>[QUOTE="iPen, post: 2506980, member: 69760"]I checked the Krause catalog and no proof version exists. I checked <a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/korea-south-10-won-km-332-1991-2005-cuid-29709-duid-343473" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/korea-south-10-won-km-332-1991-2005-cuid-29709-duid-343473" rel="nofollow">NGC's page</a> for one of the coins, and it doesn't exist either. Yet, I came across this eBay page selling a proof version of all six regular circulation coins: <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/322112967879" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/322112967879" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/322112967879</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The photos that the seller posted show a reverse proof strike. That could be possible, however, the fields look as if the flow lines are all moving upward. That, too, could be possible, as I've seen that on some of my proofs.

The only proof set that I'm aware for these regular low denomination coins is only from the year 1982.</p><p><br /></p><p>Upon even closer inspection on the OGP, it appears that it's the same as the business strike OGP of the same year.
