Two character type [Cho-son] of Year 502 [1893]. I'm assuming it's a 'small character' variety because the large type is so much scarcer. I've looked but I can't find an example to compare character sizes.
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 ]
