ThemeNational Symbols

Red and green linework gives the ten-chon certificate a firmer, more graphic presence within the socialist exchange series.

Design & Symbolism

Obverse

The national coat of arms rises among Korean inscriptions and the ten-chon value, all held within a compact red-and-green ornamental field. With no portrait or landscape to compete for attention, the emblem and denomination establish an immediate hierarchy suited to the certificate’s restricted monetary purpose.

Reverse

Guilloches spread across the reverse in concentric curves around the value. Green details break the dominant red framework and identify the denomination through colour while preserving the restrained layout shared across the fractional series.

Collector’s Insight

For collectors, P-33 occupies the ten-chon position in North Korea’s 1988 socialist foreign-exchange series. These certificates were intended for visitors converting currencies from socialist countries and remained in use until 1999 before their formal abolition in 2002. The value adds a distinct red-and-green colour pairing to a set whose attribution depends more on palette than pictorial change.
