Christmas shopping for that North Korea watcher

by Richardson ~ November 30th, 2005. Filed under: North Korea.

UPDATE: Yet another site, but this one dedicated to books, videos (DVD/CD), and even music, ‘North Korea Imports‘ (seller ‘dprkstuff’). Hat-tip to Ian.

For those of you who are interested in North Korean items – pins, military, books, bills, coins, uniforms, etc. – there are a few excellent sites that offer what you’re looking for.

First is the eBay ‘Coins and North Korea Collectibles’ store (seller ‘a–a—a’), which seems to boast the most items. Comparable in price and selection – but with some interesting Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il pins - is ‘Coinsell’ (seller ‘coinsell’) also an eBay store. Some samples are:

Although a bit more expensive, Collect Russia also has an impressive stock of North Korea items, including this pin ($15) near the bottom of the page:
