Generally speaking, commemorative coins are mainly round, especially ordinary commemorative coins, after all, they can circulate at face value, if the shape is strange, it is inconvenient to carry, not to mention, it will be more difficult to use.
In this way, the number of alien coins that are not round is relatively small, so almost every special-shaped coin will also receive more attention from Tibetan friends.
In April, the only set of Asian Games gold and silver commemorative coins has been confirmed to be issued, and they are all round commemorative coins. To get the new coins, you'll have to wait until May.
So what commemorative coins are there for May? The good news is that at least 2 alien coins have been issued, and there are many more to look forward to.
Determine the issuance of 2 alien commemorative coins
According to the issuance plan, a set of auspicious cultural commemorative coins will be issued in May, with the following specific specifications:
This set of commemorative coins contains 4 themes, 7 commemorative coins, and is a large series.
The series has been released since 2015 and is now in its eighth installment. During the long release period, there is only one specification that shines brightly, shouldering the responsibility of the dragon head every time, and it is a heart-shaped commemorative coin with a love theme.
Even in the Alien commemorative coin, the heart is a rare shape in the mainland, and it only appears in the love theme. This theme has a very large demand for gifts. At the same time, the design of the heart-shaped commemorative coin has always been very outstanding, which makes it continue to fire out of the circle.
The same series is hot so far, and it has been released incrementally this year
Due to the long release time, the auspicious cultural series was once snubbed due to aesthetic fatigue. Therefore, Mr. Jin innovated and changed the theme and specifications of the distribution, which also made it revitalized.
2020 is the first year of significant changes in auspicious culture, in which the heart-shaped commemorative coin shines! The gold and silver set with an issue price of 2520 is now about 18,800 yuan per set. The issue price of 520 single silver, currently close to 4000. I have to say that this year's heart-shaped coins are really amazing.
Since the issue date began to be fixed on May 20, the heart-shaped commemorative coin also began to be called the 520 commemorative coin.
The 520 commemorative coin in 2021, although not so eye-catching, is also the most eye-catching existence of the auspicious cultural commemorative coin of that year.
Due to its popularity, this year's 520 commemorative coin is issued in increments! The increase in silver coins from 30,000 to 50,000 has also led many Tibetans to believe that this year's heart coins may not be so good.
However, Xiaotian believes that these 2 special-shaped coins have been popular so far, and each time they are the focus of the promotion of auspicious cultural commemorative coins, and it will still be the theme that is most worthy of the lottery appointment of Tibetan friends.
There are also 2 alien coins, which may be announced in May
In addition to the precious metal commemorative coins, there are also 2 special-shaped ordinary commemorative coins, which are sure to be issued this year. They are Huangshan Coin and Emei Mountain Coin, both of which belong to the Double Heritage Series.
Among the ordinary commemorative coins on the mainland, only the two heritage coins are currently alien coins, which are square. The unique appearance and relatively sparse circulation have made the collection the most popular commemorative coin in recent years. The dragon head Taishan coin has risen more than 2 times.
According to industry news, these 2 commemorative coins may be issued at the same time. If all goes well, they will make an announcement as soon as May.
As rare alien ordinary commemorative coins, they have always been highly anticipated by Tibetan friends. However, from the current situation, ordinary coins may be delayed in issuance, because many regions do not have exchange conditions.
Therefore, Xiaotian also focuses on precious metal commemorative coins, because their issuance will hardly be affected.
In May, let's focus on two heart-shaped commemorative coins.
