Interesting fact

The 1993 10 Yuan (Running) coin from the People's Republic of China is a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not meant to be used as regular currency. Instead, it was produced specifically as a collector's item, and its mintage was limited to 20,000 pieces. This limited production, combined with its unique design and silver content, make it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
