Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1984 People's Republic of China 5 Yuan (High Jump) non-circulating coin made of Silver (.925) weighing 8.45g is that it features an image of a high jumper in mid-air, with the background of the coin depicting a stylized representation of the Beijing skyline. This design was chosen to commemorate the 1984 Olympic Games, which were held in Los Angeles, but the coin was not released until 1985. Despite not being released during the actual Olympic year, the coin is still considered a popular collector's item among numismatists and Olympic memorabilia enthusiasts.
