Seven commemorative coins are included in a series. Each coin in the set bears the obverse design of the national emblem of the People’s Republic of China, and the reverse designs are some of the most representative works of architecture and decorative patterns in the complex.

A highlight is a 1-kilogram gold coin which has the biggest nominal value of 10,000 yuan ($1,433). And only 100 such coins will be available for collectors. A panorama of the Forbidden City seen from the north is on its reverse.
