Issued to mark the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, which made China the first country to host both a Summer and Winter Games in the same city — Beijing having previously hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics. The People's Bank of China released multiple series of commemorative issues tied to the games, with this 15g silver piece forming part of a broader program that included gold, bimetallic, and colored variants across different denominations.
