I wonder whether the Korean Tiger series will continue. SO far no 2020 design has been released. In 2019 I believe it was released in July.

With the new Korean Phoenix being released in July, I wonder whether it will replace the Tiger or just postpone the issue.

 

Can't imagine they'd get rid of it as KOMSCO seems committed to their limited mintage coin series.  I hope it's available soon.

and here it is ~  not a fan of this yr’s design 😕

Print screen from the video.

Seems to be the start of a mini series inside the Korean Tiger series including Korean landmarks?

OMG.....how to screw a nice series 😞 ...... they even can't figure out the seasons ?

On the right side, the symbolic Namsan Seoul Tower shines brightly, and the blooming azaleas and forsythias around the tiger cub signals that warm spring is near.

....even in Korea summer starts.......or....are they refering to 'spring' as in 'birth of the cubs' ??? 

.....how on earth can you start a 'mini-serie of seasons' within an ongoing series......suddenly starting with a cub....that will grow in the next releases.

Will treasure the 2018's in silver and the gold ones......allthough the 2019 1/4 oz gold not even showed up in Europe or America I believe.....for me the end of the series, unfortunately 😪

Spring will probably indeed relate to cubs. So Winter will be a toothless old tiger? 😉

I don't mind the 4 seasons idea, representing the stages of life, but I do think the landmarks on top of that is a bit strange.

Didn't the Panda's have a few years of a growing cub?

[Tritoon01]

oh well....they might issue a 1 oz proof, 3 oz bu, maybe even a ghost tiger.....can't figure out the releases from Komsco.....ow, I forgot, maybe a ghost tiger with chiwoo privy ?

....looks like I'm a bit pissed 😕🙃

Im a big fan of these rounds but what the hell were they thinking clagging that tower on the coil, its out of place and frankly looks sh!te.

I went to the dentist early this afternoon.....looks like this cub can use one too 🙂 .... or is it just me who finds the head 'out of proportion' on one side ?

I really like the 2020 Tiger. I hope they have a reasonable price for the 10 ounce.

Looks like a cheesy Olympics souvenir.

Here is the explanation and a glimps on what's to come for this series. There seem to be 17 destinations. Meaning 4 coins for every season? So I guess this is a 4 year plan. Odd they didn't stop at 16 then.
