People's Republic gold Proof "50th Anniversary of the People's Republic" 500 Yuan (5 oz) 1999 UNC, KM1251, Fr-11, CC-1143. 64x40mm. Mintage: 990. Struck to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic. An expressive piece whose obverse design is as monumental as the piece itself, featuring a rendering of Dong Xiwen's famed vignette "The Founding Ceremony of the Nation." Very few to come to market since its mintage as we can only trace five appearances since 2014. Highly frosted and deeply reflective, we expect collectors of modern rarities to take note. Accompanied by the original boxes of issue, original mint packaging, and COA #000947. HID09801242017 © 2023 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
