The proof release of the South Korean Silver Chiwoo Cheonwang came a year after the bullion coins were debuted. The same designs were used for both the bullion and proof coin offerings, but the proof coins have a beautiful finish that makes them truly stand out. Today, you can purchase the 1 oz Silver 2017 Proof South Korean Chiwoo Cheonwang Medallion in perfect condition from Provident Metals.
Highlights:
The coins in this listing were given a perfect grade from the NGC. Coins that receive a PF70 grade will have their full, original mint luster with no detracting flaws on the surface areas or design elements on the coin.
The UCAM, or ultra-cameo, designation is reserved for proof coins with beautiful visual finishes. These coins have a strong, frosted matte finish across the design elements. The background field is deeply-mirrored. This gives the coins an effect that makes the design appear to float over the background of the coin.
Obverse
Chiwoos shield is shown on the obverse. This battle shield was used by Chiwoo in the wars he participated in. On the shield, you will see the face of Do ggae bi, a creature whose image was said to be so fearsome that Koreas hung it from the roof tiles on their homes to scare away evil spirits.
Reverse
On the reverse face of each coin is the image of Chiwoo Cheonwang on horseback as he rides into battle. He rides his warhorse while wearing his armor. In one hand, he holds his battle spear. In the other, he holds his famous shield.
History
The Chiwoo Cheonwang medals are released by KOMSCO. In 2016, these coins introduced a new face value concept. Instead of featuring a true monetary value, these coins use land to denote their value. For these coins, 1 Clay is the value. A clay is a parcel of land.
