'120th Anniversary Commemorative Medal for the Proclamation of Dokdo Day by the Korean Empire' Released

Collaboration with Master Son Kwang-su... Limited Sale of 4 Types

[Asia Economy Reporter Sung Ki-ho] Golden Dew announced on the 23rd that it will release the 'Dokdo Day Korean Empire Imperial Decree 120th Anniversary Commemorative Medal.'

This commemorative medal was produced to mark the 120th anniversary of the enactment of 'Korean Empire Imperial Decree No. 41,' which legally defined the jurisdiction of Dokdo on October 25, 1900, through collaboration with Master Son Kwang-su, holder of Korean Master Craftsman No. 568 in jewelry and metal crafts (manufacturing gold and silver medals).

The commemorative medal was designed with a structure combining a three-dimensional Dokdo part and a base medal (gold and silver medals), and the types consist of four kinds: 'Gold 3D Gold Medal,' 'Gold 3D Silver Medal,' 'Silver 3D Silver Medal,' and 'Gold-Bronze Medal.'

Additionally, the base part of the medal applies a latent image technique where the Taegeukgi and Dokdo intersect, producing a proof-grade collectible. Master Son Kwang-su crafted the three-dimensional Dokdo made of gold and silver materials, which is mounted on top and combined through this method.

The 'Gold 3D Gold Medal' (limited to 150 pieces) is a premium commemorative medal made of 41.8g of pure gold in a small quantity. The front features a gold 3D Dokdo at the center, and the base side expresses the East Sea with a wave and dolphin design using an embossing technique. It includes inscriptions of 'Dokdo Day,' '120th Anniversary of the Korean Empire Imperial Decree,' and '1900-2020.'

Reservations will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis from the 26th to the 30th at nationwide branches of Industrial Bank of Korea, NongHyup Bank, Woori Bank, as well as Golden Dew online mall, Hyundai Department Store online mall, and Poongsan Hwadoyanghaeng.
