Yes, I know there's a lot of counterfeits when it comes to Chinese coins but this one is ok. It's a common 1 yuan coin with an interesting rotated error. While there is no mintage available for common circulating Chinese coins to my knowledge - I would expect mintage to be in billions.

Despite possible high mintage figures, Chinese error coins are not common to find. This will be my first modern Chinese error coin which is struck after 1955. Won this a while back and thought I might as well share.

Please feel free to share any modern Chinese error coins - might be a lot harder than what you think.

I would agree with you one the scarceness of modern Chinese error coins. I don't recall seeing any other than yours struck within the past 20 years. Nice find. :)

A 1994 coin with a similar error can be seen here.

But, not surprisingly, there are also fake error coins.

This website shows a normal 1994 coin on the left and one with a severe rotated die error on the right. Forum members suspect that the error coin may be a fake.

Forum members feel that this rotated die error coin is probably a fake.
