| Beschrijving voorzijde | A frontal perspective view of the Meridian Gate (午门, Wumen) of the Forbidden City occupies the central field, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished background. The massive ceremonial gatehouse, with its distinctive five pavilions and characteristic Ming dynasty bracketed eaves, is approached by a broad stairway receding in perspective toward the gate's central portal. The curved legend 中华人民共和国 (People's Republic of China) arcs along the upper periphery in Chinese characters. Below the architectural motif, the inscription 午门 (Meridian Gate) appears at left, flanked by the attribution 建于明代 (Built in the Ming Dynasty) at right, with the date 1997 in the lower exergue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Forbidden City gold series of the 1990s was issued under the aegis of the China Gold Coin Incorporation, a state body established in 1979 specifically to manage bullion and commemorative coin programs as China reopened to international numismatic markets. The 1997 garden issue coincides with Hong Kong's handover — though the coin itself has no formal connection to that event, the timing flooded the market with PRC commemoratives that year, suppressing secondary prices on multiple series simultaneously.
Mintages for individual subjects within this series were tightly controlled, often under 10,000 pieces, though Chinese state records from this period are not always independently verifiable.
