<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mlov43, post: 2322706, member: 16729&quot;]Don&#039;t know much about these DPRK coins.&nbsp; I purchased a set of 1978-dated DPRK banknotes in Seoul Tower (the &quot;space needle&quot; of South Korea at the top of Mt. Namsan) in the mid-1990s.&nbsp; I didn&#039;t pick up the coins because I didn&#039;t like the idea of a whole series of coins struck in aluminum...yuck!&nbsp; Like gxseries said, I don&#039;t think I have ever caught wind of any major appreciation in value or demand for the coins pictured in the OP.&nbsp;&nbsp; I have heard that you&#039;re not supposed to sell them on eBay anymore (due to some recent sanctions).</p><p><br /></p><p>For some reason, DPRK commemorative coins (especially the gold/silver proofs) have gotten popular.&nbsp; Probably because some Western millionaire has supposedly tried to corner the market on their gold pieces, and the news around that might have piqued the interest of others, who then went nuts over the silver pieces.&nbsp;&nbsp; I don&#039;t really care much for anything from that part of the peninsula myself.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I only collect South Korea.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
