The Bank of Shanghai was founded in 1995 as one of China's first joint-stock commercial banks established after the post-1978 reform period, and this issue commemorates its twentieth anniversary. China's silver commemorative program has produced dozens of institutional anniversaries in this format, making individual pieces difficult to distinguish in the secondary market without reference to the specific reverse design.
