The announcement of the issuance of the millennium gold and silver commemorative coins of Chinese banknotes that the majority of collectors and enthusiasts are looking forward to has also been released this evening, and a set of Chinese banknotes millennium gold and silver commemorative coins will be issued on April 22, 2024. There are 3 commemorative coins in this set, including 2 gold commemorative coins and 1 silver commemorative coin, all of which are legal tender.
The Chinese banknotes Millennium Gold and Silver Commemorative Coin are issued with three specifications, namely 150-gram rectangular gold coins with a circulation of 500 pieces. 8-gram rectangular gold coin with a mintage of 10,000 pieces. 30-gram rectangular silver coin with a mintage of 20,000 pieces. On the whole, the circulation is not too large, especially the 150-gram rectangular gold coin has only 500 pieces, and in recent years, the 150-gram gold coin has been issued 500 pieces, which is a relatively small variety.
Chinese banknotes millennium gold and silver commemorative coins, the overall design is still somewhat unexpected, using the process of high relief, especially the 150 grams of rectangular gold coins and 30 grams of rectangular silver coins have the use of high relief technology, 8 grams of rectangular gold coin technology is more general, all use laser technology.
For the Chinese banknote millennium gold and silver commemorative coins, it is a variety of very high voice and popularity in recent years, in fact, at the beginning of the month, there is basically news that two varieties of gold and silver commemorative coins will be issued this month, China's polar scientific expedition gold and silver commemorative coins and Chinese banknotes millennium gold and silver commemorative coins, of course, from the current market heat, China's paper money millennium gold and silver commemorative coins will be much hotter. It can also be seen from the current reservation popularity of gold and silver commemorative coins for China's polar scientific expeditions, and it can also be seen that the number of participants is not too large.
Of course, the market popularity of gold and silver commemorative coins for China's polar scientific expedition and Chinese banknotes for millennium gold and silver commemorative coins cannot be compared with the 2024 Chinese New Year ordinary commemorative coins and commemorative banknotes for the second reservation, after all, the two varieties are completely different, but I believe that after the second reservation of the 2024 Chinese New Year of the Dragon ordinary commemorative coins and commemorative banknotes, the market heat will also be converted to the Chinese banknotes millennium gold and silver commemorative coins.
However, one thing is also more unexpected, the announcement of the issuance of Chinese banknotes millennium gold and silver commemorative coins was only released after 8 o'clock this evening, and the announcement of the issuance of gold and silver commemorative coins in the past was either in the morning or before getting off work. But there is also an interesting thing, there is already an announcement on the official account of the Chinese banknote millennium gold and silver commemorative coins, but this announcement does not appear on the website.
According to past experience, the reservation lottery for the gold and silver commemorative coins of the Chinese banknotes will also be held tomorrow, and interested collectors should not miss this variety. It is estimated that the earliest will be tomorrow morning, and the appointment lottery will be held later tomorrow afternoon. As for what varieties can participate, it is not easy to judge from the past, and the first choice is the 30-gram rectangular silver coin.
