What is the nationality of the person on the 2 dimes?

The portraits of ethnic minorities on the fourth set of RMB are of some ethnic minority employees at a tourist attraction in Beijing. At that time, in order to design the artwork for the fourth edition of the currency, the photographers from the central bank's design team invited them to wear their own ethnic costumes and take a set of photos. Later, the engraver selected some better and representative ones and carved them into printing steel plates. Some of them were eventually selected and printed on the fourth set of RMB.

The specific ethnic groups are as follows: 1-corner portrait of Gaoshan and Manchu 2-corner portrait of Buyi and Korean 5-corner portrait of Miao and Zhuang 1-corner portrait of Dong and Yao 2-corner portrait of Uyghur and Yi 5-corner portrait of Tibetan and Hui 10 yuan for portraits of Han and Mongolian figures, 50 yuan for portraits of workers, farmers, and intellectuals, 100 yuan for relief statues of Mao, Zhou, Liu, and Zhu
