Korean 50 Won ( 50원 주화 ) Coin Collection

Here is my South Korean 50 Won coin collection in Uncirculated/Brilliant Uncirculated condition (This is a follow-up video to my 100 Won coin collection).

₩50

These 50 Won coins are kept in Air-tite holders with black rings, presented in double-37mm Dansco coin pages, and bound in a 1 and 1/4-inch Dansco World Coin Library album. I did the lettering on the album's spine myself with gold acrylic paint, and the cover was professionally stenciled by Litho Tech Custom Cover in Bloomington, Minnesota, USA. The lettering on the pages (the dates, etc) was done using blank Avery Dennison "Clear Easy Peel Return Address Labels" that I ran off my computer's printer. I know the labels are not completely transparent, but it's the best I could do.

I have the entire series here with all the key dates,including the important first-year, 1972 "Key Date" coin.

@Alacranero716 In Korea, it's worth exactly 500 Won (about 50 cents in US money). The 2000 Won coin is NOT a key date coin in the 500 Won series. At a website called Korea Coins, it sells for $3.99. I've seen it at ebay for about $3.50, and that's only if it's in Brilliant Uncirculated condition.
