Afternoon everyone….

It’s been a stressful morning for me. For some stupid technicalities my permit for my shop build has been denied. I was told by the building department to contact my engineer and architect and give them a copy of the report. They will know what to do.

Well what the FUCK does that mean ASSHOLE!!!!

How about you’re the one who denied it. Why don’t you explain it to me in English you pompous prick!!!!

If you can’t tell I’m pretty pissed off right now…..

Let’s move on…

Today I will be sharing something that I came across the other day. This series is totally awesome in my opinion and I’m glad that I started it. It’s the Chiwoo Cheonwang series from the Komsco Mint.

Here is a little info on it…
Obverse

Do ggae bi features on the obverse of 1 oz Silver 2020 South Korean Chiwoo Cheonwang Medals in a new design for the first time. While the primary visual element of the battle shield of Chiwoo Cheonwang remains the same, the face of Do ggae bi is new for the 2020 release. Based on a grinning image of Do ggae bi held in the Gyeongju National Museum of the Republic of Korea, the design showcases a smiling image of Do ggae bi with larger eyebrows, flared nostrils, and more prominent teeth. This bust of Do ggae bi also has bulls horns on its head now. Inscriptions include 2020 Fine Silver 999, Republic of Korea, 1 Clay, and KOMSCO.

Reverse

Chiwoo Cheonwang is shown in the fifth new design in the series on the reverse of the 1 oz Silver 2020 South Korean Chiwoo Cheonwang Medals. This depiction shows Chiwoo Cheonwang preparing for yet another war. This time his enemies arent from the mortal world and hell require the assistance of the 12 Guardians. Near the Salt Lake within his empire, the Hell Gate has emerged. From this gate, the forces of evil can flood the world and it is up to Chiwoo to muster an army to stop it.

History

The 2020 South Korean Chiwoo Cheonwang Medals marks the fifth anniversary of the series. Introduced in 2016, mintage figures have ebbed and flowed. The 2020 medals have a mintage of just 33,000 in total.

Nos off the medal…
