| Additional information |
China's capital markets trace their formal origin to the opening of the Shanghai Stock Exchange on December 19, 1990, followed by the Shenzhen Stock Exchange eight days later — both operating initially under tight restrictions that limited trading to a narrow list of state-approved companies. This coin marks the twentieth anniversary of that opening.
The series belongs to a well-documented pattern of Chinese commemorative silver issues from this period, struck at the Shanghai Mint to the now-standard one-troy-ounce specification that dominated PRC commemorative output throughout the 2000s.
