Interesting fact
The 1990 10 Yuan (Diving) coin from the People's Republic of China is a unique collector's item because it features a diving athlete on the obverse (front side), which is not a common design element in Chinese coinage. This coin was issued to commemorate the 11th Asian Games, which were held in Beijing in 1990. The coin's design, which features a diver in mid-air, captures the spirit of athleticism and competition that characterizes the Asian Games. Additionally, the coin's silver content and limited mintage make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
