Historical Context: Issued by the People's Republic of China in 2017, this 10 Yuan silver coin commemorates the Temple and Cemetery of Confucius and Kong Family Mansion in Qufu. This UNESCO World Heritage site is the ancestral home and burial ground of Confucius, the revered philosopher whose teachings profoundly shaped Chinese civilization for over two millennia. Its issuance highlights China's modern commitment to preserving and promoting its rich cultural heritage and national identity.
Artistry: While the specific engraver is typically uncredited on modern Chinese issues, the design adheres to the contemporary Chinese numismatic school, blending detailed realism with classical motifs. The reverse features a meticulously rendered depiction of the Qufu complex, showcasing the grandeur of the Temple of Confucius, the solemnity of the Confucian Cemetery, and the architectural elegance of the Kong Family Mansion. The obverse bears the national emblem and year of issue.
