1. Circulating coins

1. Hard cents

Continental coins are produced according to the needs of circulation, and if there is no shortage of coins of a certain denomination in a certain year, the coins of that year are often no longer produced. This is the case with the emergence of the "Five Heavenly Kings". These five coins were not in short supply at that time, so they were not mass-produced and issued, and the mint produced only a small amount, which became the "Annual Chinese Coin Set" with coins of various denominations in the same year, which was given away as a collectible or sold to foreign guests, which was very precious, known as the "Five Heavenly Kings" of coins.

2. Great Wall Coin

The "Great Wall" coin is a set of ordinary circulating metal coins issued by the Chinese Bank with the "Great Wall" as the pattern for the people of all ethnic groups in the country, which was first issued on April 15, 1980 and ended in 1986. The background of the issuance of this set of coins was actually minted by the state in order to alleviate the tension between one-dollar bills and horned coupons in the circulation field, and it can participate in circulation, but after the advent of the set of coins, it seems that it has not been generally welcomed by people and is rare in the circulation market. The "Great Wall" coin ceased circulation on July 1, 2000, and is currently the only set of coins in mainland China that has withdrawn from the circulation field. There are 4 different denominations of the "Great Wall" coin, namely 1 yuan copper-nickel gold coin and 5 jiao, 2 jiao, 1 dime copper and zinc gold coin.

3. Old three flowers

The old three-flower coin refers to a dime of chrysanthemum, a five-pointed plum blossom and a dollar of peony. Chrysanthemum 1 corner is made of aluminum zinc (similar to silver coins, but softer than silver coins). On the one hand, this material has achieved a high relief effect of chrysanthemum 1 corner, on the other hand, it is also very wear-resistant, easy to scratch and bruise, easy to oxidize, not easy to preserve, so the wear and tear rate in the market circulation is quite high, the amount of recycling by the bank is huge, and the amount of existence is much less than other currencies. The number of plum blossom 5 dime coins issued is relatively smaller than the number of peony 1 yuan and chrysanthemum 1 dime coins. In particular, the plum blossom 5 dime coins issued in 1993 and 1994 are even rarer.

Aluminum Orchid was issued in 1999-2003, people like to say that it is the 1999 version of the coin, it is the shortest edition of the coin in China, only five years. 1 corner of steel orchid was issued in 2005-2018 for a total of 8 years; 5 corners of lotus was issued in 2002-2018 for a total of 11 years; and chrysanthemum 1 yuan was issued in 1999-2018 for a total of 14 years. ...........
