Interesting fact
The 2 Jiao coin from the Chinese Soviet Republic (1932-1933) was designed by the famous Chinese artist, Xu Beihong. Xu Beihong was a renowned painter and coin designer, and his works are considered national treasures in China. The coin features a portrait of a young woman wearing a traditional Chinese hat, symbolizing the revolution and progress of the Chinese people. The coin's design was influenced by the Soviet Union's coinage design, reflecting the close relationship between the two countries during that time.
