In 1986, in celebration of the United Nations' proclamation of the year as the International Year of Peace, the mainland issued an ordinary commemorative coin for the International Year of Peace.
This commemorative coin has been issued for more than 30 years, but compared with the popular varieties of commemorative coins such as CCB coins and old five coins, the popularity is not high, and its performance in the market is mediocre, and it has not received too much attention.
At present, the price of a roll-up phase is also more than 50 yuan.
But some time ago, there was a peace year coin sold at a high price of 56555 yuan!
56555 yuan auction transaction
A few days ago, at a special auction in the United States and Australia, the 1986 Peace Year Refined Coin (Fat Pigeon Version) was finally sold at an auction price of 56555 yuan.
And this coin at auction is not only a refined coin, but also a fat pigeon version, which I am afraid that many families do not know.
Peace Year refined coins
In addition to the peace-year general coin with a circulation of 27.048 million, three editions of refined coins were issued, which were named fat pigeon version, thin pigeon version, and thin sandblasted version.
It is understood that its refined coin issuance is a total of 4500 pieces. The distinction between these three editions is mainly based on the fatness of the pigeons on the arms of the girl, and the specific differences are as follows:
One
Fat pigeon version
The fat pigeon version is characterized by the fattening of the peace dove on the arm of the girl in the pattern, which is connected to the arm.
▲The pigeon has no gap with the arm
Two
Skinny pigeon version
The skinny pigeon version is characterized by the fact that the peace dove on the girl's arm in the pattern is thinner, not connected to the arm, and has gaps.
Three
Thin sandblasted version
This one has two features, one is the feature of the thin sandblasted version is that the peace dove on the girl's arm in the pattern is thinner, not connected to the arm, there is a gap, and the sandblasting of the pigeon and the word "peace" on the coin is relatively thin.
The number of thin sandblasted plates is unknown, but according to the number found on the market so far, it is the least of the three versions, so the price is also the highest. The estimate is between 50,000 and 70,000 yuan.
