[QUOTE="gxseries, post: 1339525, member: 4373"]I did forget to compliment mlov43's site (how embrassing) - it's really well done and I don't think any other sites will exceed it even if it's in Korean. Here's a couple of questions that I never had the time or resources to have answered: 1) With regards to South Korea's coin die alignment, circulated coins have always been struck in die alignment. How would you explain some commemorative coins that were struck in medal alignment? Not too sure if all commemorative coins were struck in such. 2) With regards to the 'pattern' 5 won, how does it end up to be the new coin design for the new 50 won? Was it because they decided to keep on using the old 50 hwan design and pushed the trial design to the newer 50 won coin? Any trial designs known for the 100 and 500 won?[/QUOTE]
