The phoenix, known as Bonghwang in Korean, has long symbolized peace, prosperity, and renewal. This 2020 South Korea Phoenix Firebird Edition transforms that cultural icon into a modern numismatic masterpiece. Struck in 1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver, the medal measures 40 mm in diameter and carries a brilliant uncirculated finish enhanced with palladium, ruthenium, space red, and yellow gold.
The obverse features the phoenix soaring in mid-flight. Its talons extend downward, wings stretch wide, and long tail feathers trail gracefully below. The date of issue and series title frame the artwork. KOMSCO, the official mint of South Korea, integrated a cutting-edge security feature directly into the strike. As the viewing angle shifts, the Korean words for Bong and Hwang appear within fine, rigid lines—no resin or post-production effects needed.
The reverse draws on South Korea’s presidential seal, featuring two facing phoenixes with the Taeguk symbol at center. Inscriptions note the issuing country, metal purity, and weight, reinforcing both authenticity and collectible value.
