China's polymer commemorative notes have followed a consistent pattern since the 2000 Millennium issue — limited print runs, collector-oriented distribution, and negligible actual circulation. This 2024 Dragon note continues that tradition, issued to mark the Year of the Dragon in the sexagenary cycle. The transparent window element is integrated into the polymer substrate itself rather than applied as a separate foil patch, a distinction worth noting for those comparing security architecture across China's polymer issues.
The China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation has produced all of the PBC's polymer commemoratives domestically, unlike some earlier Chinese notes that relied on overseas printers.
