China's commemorative coin program for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics was among the most extensive in the Games' history, spanning multiple metals, denominations, and series issued across several years leading up to the event. Beijing became the first city to host both a Summer and Winter Olympics, having previously held the 2008 Summer Games — a fact the Chinese government promoted heavily throughout the lead-up to February 2022.
The .999 silver issues with color printing were targeted squarely at the collector market rather than circulation, produced under the People's Bank's standing authority to issue legal tender commemoratives independently of the standard coinage program.
