| Additional information |
The West Lake series, issued periodically by the People's Bank of China, draws on one of the most politically charged scenic designations in modern Chinese cultural policy — West Lake in Hangzhou was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2011 after decades of lobbying, a recognition Beijing treated as a point of national cultural prestige rather than merely conservation. The 155.52g weight places this in the five-troy-ounce category, the heaviest denomination tier the PBC regularly issued in this landscape series.
