| Additional information |
The Bank of Shanghai, founded in 1995, was among the first joint-stock commercial banks established after China began restructuring its state-dominated financial sector in the early 1990s. This issue belongs to a series commemorating Chinese financial institutions — a program that attracted strong demand from domestic collectors during a period when gold commemoratives from the People's Bank of China were being aggressively marketed through authorized dealers with strict mintage controls.
Mintage figures for this type were capped at 30,000 pieces.
