A striking fusion of myth and modern minting, the 2017 South Korea 1 oz Chiwoo Cheonwang Gold Medal marks the second release in the acclaimed Chiwoo Cheonwang Series from KOMSCO, the official mint of South Korea. Struck in .999 fine gold and graded PCGS MS 69, this medal showcases the nation’s legendary guardian deity in breathtaking artistic form. With limited mintage, powerful symbolism, and near-perfect quality, the 2017 issue captures both the spirit of ancient Korea and the precision of modern craftsmanship.
In Korean mythology, Chiwoo Cheonwang (also known as the “God of War”) is a revered warrior king and celestial guardian. Said to have commanded the elements - wind, rain, and thunder, Chiwoo embodies valor, justice, and the eternal fight against evil. His story originates from ancient East Asian legends where he leads heavenly armies against chaos, securing peace for humankind.
Introduced in 2016, the Chiwoo Cheonwang Series quickly rose to international prominence for its artistic storytelling, advanced minting, and limited mintages. The 2017 edition builds upon the success of the inaugural issue with a new design capturing Chiwoo in fierce readiness, symbolizing renewal and protection. Collectors regard this year’s release as one of the most dynamic and aesthetically commanding entries in the series.
