Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the opening of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, which was a significant engineering achievement and a major milestone in the history of Tibet. The railway connects Xining, the capital of Qinghai Province, with Lhasa, the capital of Tibet Autonomous Region, and was completed in 2006. The coin's design features an image of the train and the snow-capped mountains of Tibet, symbolizing the connection between the two regions and the country's commitment to developing its western regions.
