| Additional information |
China's lunar silver series has been issued annually since 1981, but the program underwent a significant structural change starting with the 2016 issues — the face value was standardized at 10 Yuan and the weight fixed at 30 grams, replacing the earlier 1 oz format. The 2019 Pig issue falls under this revised framework, produced by the Shenyang and Shanghai mints running simultaneous strikes, which occasionally produces subtle die characteristic differences between facilities.
