1990 China Gold 100 Yuan Year of the Horse Proof
1990 China Gold 100 Yuan Year of the Horse Proof
In 1990, the People's Bank of China authorized a special gold coin to celebrate the Lunar Year of the Horse. Struck in one troy ounce of highly pure 0.999 fine gold, this proof-quality release features a striking artistic representation of a horse in full gallop, moving toward the left. The lower portion of this side displays the face value of 100 Yuan alongside the metal purity of 0.999. The other side of the coin displays the national emblem of the People's Republic of China, with the year of issue, 1990, positioned directly underneath. This elegant gold issue had a limited production, with only 6,000 of these pieces minted, making it a fascinating subject of study for those interested in lunar-themed coinage.
