People's Bank of China Integrates AI Into Legal Tender: First Set of Artificial Intelligence-Themed Gold and Silver Coins to Be Issued in September.

2026.08.28 16:01:35

Dongcha Beating AI News Flash: The People's Bank of China (PBOC) will issue the "Sci-Tech Innovation Future (Artificial Intelligence)" gold and silver commemorative coin set, consisting of 3 pieces: 1 gold coin and 2 silver coins, all legal tender. The 5-gram gold coin is 18mm square, with designs including a chip, brain-shaped circuit, and 0/1 elements on its reverse side. Each of the two 15-gram silver coins features distinct designs: one with a face, circuit, and spiral dot matrix; the other with a key and AI symbol. The gold coin has a face value of 80 yuan, with a maximum mintage of 10,000 pieces; each silver coin carries a face value of 5 yuan, with a maximum mintage of 20,000 pieces. It should be noted that the face value here is not the selling price. The face value of precious metal commemorative coins mainly serves to indicate their legal tender status, while the actual selling price is determined by factors such as gold/silver raw material costs and production expenses. In March this year, when soliciting coin design drafts, the organizer explicitly allowed designers to use AI tools for assistance, but prohibited submitting AI-generated content directly. The three coins are themed respectively on: basic research in artificial intelligence, "technology for good", and the application of "AI +" across various industries.
