Introduction: When it comes to 5 dime coins, the first thing that comes to mind is definitely the lotus pennies or plum blossom pentagrams, but for many people, they are two pentagrams! But for collectors, some of these 5 dimes are far more valuable than their denominations themselves.
1. Of course, often there is no collectible value is not the coin used in large quantities in circulation in the market, but the collection potential that has been stopped in circulation or rarely seen in the market. The 5 dime coin, which we currently use as lotus 5 dime, is the latest coin and belongs to the fifth set of coins. Prior to this, in the 1980s, a 5-corner coin was also issued, which is commonly known as the Great Wall coin.
2. After that is the plum blossom 5 dime coin that we are familiar with, both of the same material, both are minted in copper-zinc alloy. For these two 5 dime coins, most people have only seen the plum blossom 5 dime, while the former due to its long time and small circulation, currently only exists in the collection market. The plum blossom pentagram is still in use, but it is now rarely seen in the market. In the history of RMB circulation coin issuance, the first set is a hard cent, the second set is a Great Wall coin, and the plum blossom 5 dime coin belongs to the third set of circulating coins, which is different from the three floral pattern coins used now, the new sanhua, which is called the old sanhua.
3. Plum blossom 5 dime coin is issued from 1991 to 2001 to stop a total of 11 years, these eleven years are almost all public circulation, its circulation is also quite large, it is estimated that many people can find a few pieces, but can find these are basically in circulation. In fact, in these 11 years, there are also a small number of refined coins, but not every year, as shown in the figure of the 2000 plum blossom 5 dime coin, is a refined coin, then how is the value of this refined coin plum blossom 5 dime?
4. However, like this rare and rare refined plum blossom 5 dime coin, usually in the hands of professional collectors, and most of them are graded coins, it is understood that a score of 69 points of the 2000 edition of the refined plum blossom 5 dime coin, the market value is about 6000 yuan.
