Issued to mark the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, these coins were produced by the People's Bank of China as part of a broader commemorative program spanning multiple metals and denominations. Beijing became the first city to host both a Summer and Winter Olympics when it took on the 2022 Games, having previously held the 2008 Summer Games. The event itself was staged under strict closed-loop biosecurity measures due to COVID-19, limiting spectator attendance to pre-approved domestic audiences only.
The .999 fine silver series proved popular with domestic collectors, and distribution moved quickly through official banking channels.
