The 2022 Chiwoo Silver coin marks the 7th release of the highly sought after Chiwoo Silver bullion series. The limited mintages and annual changing designs make the Chiwoo series desired in many collections or investments.
KOMSCO, the official mint of South Korea, chose this historical figure to celebrate the country’s first-ever Silver bullion series. Chiwoo Cheonwang is revered in Chinese and Korean cultures for both his historical feats and the folklore tales attributed to him.

Who is Chiwoo Cheonwang?

Chiwoo Cheonwang is a well-known symbol in South Korea whose mask serves as the mascot of the Red Devils – a club that supports the national South Korean soccer team. Beyond this modern use of his mask, Chiwoo Cheonwang is known throughout Korean lore and legend as a God of War. He wears a demon-like mask, casts magical spells, carries a large shield with his mask engraved on the front and is believed to control the weather!

Chiwoo Cheonwang Designs

This powerful figure is depicted in stunning detail on the reverse of KOMSCO’s second issue. Like the first release, Chiwoo Cheonwang appears in full-armor with his mask donned, his large shield and spear in either hand. This time around, he is mounted on a fearsome, rearing warhorse, with his cape billowing in the wind. “CHIWOO CHEONWANG” is inscribed on the designs’ wide border.

The obverse design mirrors that of the first Chiwoo Cheonwang  and besides the year will undoubtedly remain unchanged throughout the course of the series. It is a fantastic, detailed depiction of Cheonwang’s shield, encircled by the inscriptions “2020 FINE SILVER 999,” “REPUBLIC OF KOREA,” “1 CLAY,” and at the bottom, the KOMSCO logo. Between the shield and the logo is a special anti-counterfeiting feature – a small lenticular circle with the text “Ag" or "999," depending on the viewing angle.

Minted at KOMSCO the official mint of South Korea, this is Korea's very first release of their Silver bullion series. The series will bear a new concept on the face value of 1 CLAY. The first issue features Chiwoo Cheonwang, a legendary figure in Korean history who is known as a symbol for victory and a guardian figure.
