| Additional information |
Part of the People's Bank of China's long-running Buddhist Mountains series, this issue commemorates Mount Emei in Sichuan province, one of the Four Sacred Buddhist Mountains of China. The series launched in 1994 and has maintained an annual release cadence for two decades, making it a structured collector program rather than an opportunistic issue. Mintages for individual denominations in this series are typically capped at 30,000 pieces, though the People's Bank rarely publishes granular production data by year.
