China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation (CBPMC), (simplified Chinese: 中国印钞造币总公司; traditional Chinese: 中國印鈔造幣總公司; pinyin: Zhōngguó Yìnchāo Zàobì Zǒnggōngsī) is a state-owned corporation which carries out the minting of all renminbi coins and printing of renminbi banknotes for the People's Republic of China headquartered in Beijing.
Several mints in different parts of China: Beijing, Nanjing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Shenyang, are subsidiaries of CBPMC. Since they do not employ mint marks, their products are visually indistinguishable. Usually, a coin design is struck by only one mint, but sometimes the same coin design is struck by more than one of these mints. Many coin distributors then attribute these coins to "Chinese Mint", meaning some unit of CBPMC. |
