The Best Silver coin category includes differing weights and diameters, commemorative themes and commercial viability, making comparison challenging. However, time has shown that the main thing nominators and judges tend to look for is beauty of design. The China – Auspicious Culture – Swans 20 Yuan presents a gorgeous and touching depiction of a mother swan and a single cygnet in a moment of affectionate bonding. All ten coins in the Best Silver category this time around had unique, stunning designs and the voting became the tightest of any in this competition for 2021-dated coins. However, the Swan 20 Yuan had a personally touching quality that differentiated it from all the rest, bringing this wonderful coin the recognition it so deserved.
Below is an acceptance speech from Mr. JIAO Jinpu, Chairman of the Board, China Gold Coin Group Co., LTD.
