| Additional information |
Issued to mark forty years since the December 1978 Third Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee — the meeting at which Deng Xiaoping effectively consolidated power and launched the policy of "Reform and Opening Up" — this coin belongs to a series of commemoratives the People's Bank has used to reinforce the official historical narrative around that decision. The 1978 plenum is treated in Chinese political culture less as an economic turning point than as a founding moment, which explains the consistency and scale of the commemorative program surrounding its anniversaries.
