ThemePortraits & People

A formal portrait of Kim Il Sung turns toward the quiet domestic landscape of Mangyongdae.

Design & Symbolism

Obverse

Kim Il Sung fills the brown face in a closely engraved portrait framed by flowers, Korean inscriptions and the national emblem. The reduced format concentrates attention on his features, replacing the broader margins of the 1978 predecessor with a tighter, more immediate arrangement.

Reverse

Trees surround the houses at Mangyongdae identified as Kim Il Sung’s birthplace. The domestic setting continues the portrait’s biographical focus in spatial form, moving from the public image of the leader to an idealised place of origin.

Collector’s Insight

For collectors, P-43a(4) is associated with the head-on Arch of Triumph watermark, distinguishing it from the related three-quarter-view paper variety. The note belongs to the reduced-size 1992 issue created as earlier currency was being withdrawn from uncontrolled export. Its catalogue identity therefore joins a visible paper distinction with a wider monetary transition.
