Additional information

Part of the first series of renminbi coins introduced after the People's Republic shifted toward a modernized currency infrastructure in the late 1970s, these were struck across several years with notable mintage variation. The 1980 issues generally saw wide distribution, but certain years in the run — particularly 1981 — were produced in quantities so limited they were effectively withheld from circulation and exist today almost exclusively in mint sets sold to foreign collectors, making circulated examples genuinely suspect.
