| Additional information |
The Year of Spain in China was a bilateral cultural initiative launched in 2007 under a framework agreement between the two governments, part of a broader push by Madrid to deepen economic ties with Beijing during a period of rapid Chinese market expansion. Spain issued several commemorative pieces for the occasion. This gold micro-coin belongs to that run — small-format bullion collectibles that the Real Casa de la Moneda had been producing with increasing frequency through the mid-2000s as gift-market items rather than circulation pieces.
