The main characteristics of the fifth set of RMB

The process of raw materials is improved, and the comprehensive quality and anti-counterfeiting of paper are improved. The fixed watermark has strong stereoscopic effect and vivid image. Magnetic micro-characters, security thread, colored fiber and colorless fluorescent fiber are organically applied to paper, and a comprehensive plate-making technology combining computer-aided design, manual engraving, electronic engraving and printing etching is adopted. In particular, international anti-counterfeiting measures have been adopted for second-line and third-line anti-counterfeiting, which provides conditions for professionals and researchers to identify authenticity. Compared with the fourth set of RMB, the anti-counterfeiting technology of the fifth set of RMB has increased from more than a dozen to more than twenty, and the main figures of portrait, watermark and denomination have been enlarged compared with before, which is convenient for the masses to identify.

Practice has proved that some traditional anti-counterfeiting technologies are effective. During the development of the fifth set of RMB, the deeper research on traditional anti-counterfeiting technology was strengthened, and efforts were made on quality and reliability, with the focus on improving its technical content. Such as: carving portraits, paying attention to the hierarchy of portraits; Security thread, adding microforms and magnetism, holographic window opening, etc. Carve gravure, highlight its gravure feel and so on.

At the same time, the fifth set of RMB has also applied a number of mature and internationally advanced anti-counterfeiting technologies, mainly including: optically variable ink printing, coded fluorescent ink printing, invisible denomination numbers, horizontal and vertical double numbers, two-color horizontal numbers, complementary patterns of yin and yang, offset microfilm, red and blue colored fibers, intaglio touch lines, anti-copy marks, white water printing and many other anti-counterfeiting technologies. In addition, there are many expert anti-counterfeiting technologies. Compared with the fourth set of RMB, an important breakthrough of the fifth set of RMB anti-counterfeiting technology is the addition of machine-readable technology, which facilitates the sorting and processing of modern machines and tools. The fifth set of RMB adopts the head of Comrade Mao Zedong in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China on the front, the famous flower pattern in China on the bottom, and the Great Hall of the People, Potala Palace, Guilin Landscape, Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, Mount Tai and Hangzhou West Lake on the back. By selecting representative patterns with national characteristics, we can fully display the long history and magnificent mountains and rivers of our great motherland and carry forward the great national culture.

The issuance of the fifth set of RMB (version 1999) is an important event in the construction of China's monetary system, and it is also a gift for the 50th anniversary of the founding of New China. In response to a reporter's question about issuing the fifth set of RMB, the head of the People's Bank of China pointed out that it is necessary to issue the fifth set of RMB. The monetary system needs to be adjusted in time with the actual situation of economic development and change. The design and printing of the fourth set of RMB in China began at the beginning of reform and opening up. Due to the conditions at that time, the fourth set of RMB itself had some shortcomings, such as: the simple anti-counterfeiting measures were not conducive to the anti-counterfeiting of RMB; Lack of machine-readable performance is not conducive to the automatic processing of banknotes and so on. The official also pointed out that the time is ripe to issue the fifth set of RMB. Under the correct leadership of the CPC Central Committee, China enjoys political stability, sustained, rapid and healthy economic development, continuous progress in various social undertakings and remarkable improvement in its international status. Hong Kong has successfully returned to the motherland, and Macao will soon return to the motherland. The great cause of reunification of the motherland is developing vigorously. At the same time, China's financial industry has developed steadily and healthily in the process of reform and opening up. All these have provided a favorable guarantee for the smooth issuance of the fifth set of RMB.

Compared with the first four sets of RMB, the fifth set of RMB has the following remarkable characteristics:

First, the fifth set of RMB was independently designed and printed by the People's Bank of China for the first time, indicating that the design and printing system of China currency is mature and fully capable of completing the design and printing task of national currency in the banking system. The printing technology of this new version of RMB has reached the international advanced level through expert argumentation;

Second, the fifth set of RMB further reflects the long history and magnificent mountains and rivers of our great motherland with distinctive national characteristics through representative patterns;

Third, the fifth set of RMB main map, watermark and denomination figures are enlarged compared with before, especially highlighting the denomination represented by Arabic numerals, which is convenient for the masses to identify and will receive better social effects;

Fourth, the fifth set of RMB uses advanced science and technology, which greatly improves its anti-counterfeiting performance and adapts to the modernization of currency processing. It can be said that this is a set of high-tech RMB;

The fifth set of RMB has been adjusted in the face size, with the face width unchanged and the length reduced.

In addition, the denomination structure of the fifth set of RMB has also been adjusted on the basis of the first four sets of RMB, with 2 yuan coupons and 20-cent coupons cancelled and 20 yuan coupons added. This is because: With the development of economy, the frequency of using 2 yuan coupons and 20-cent coupons in commodity trading is less and less. Cancellation of these two coupons will not only hinder circulation, but also save printing costs. But from the collection point of view, these two kinds of coupons have great appreciation potential.

With the continuous improvement of the price level, the major currencies with the denomination of 10 yuan gradually assume the role of change in commodity trading. Compared with other currencies, there are more bills of 10 yuan denomination, which objectively requires the bills from 50 yuan to 10 yuan to undertake the important task of meeting the needs of market currency circulation. Therefore, in order to adjust the RMB circulation structure and improve the monetary system, the fifth set of RMB has been added with 20 yuan vouchers. The fifth set of RMB is exquisitely made and beautifully patterned, and a traditional famous flower pattern from China is placed in the center of the banknotes in six currencies, which makes this version of RMB look elegant, simple and modern. In addition, it also has anti-counterfeiting function.

1. 1 yuan note: orchid. Delicate and fragrant, it is one of the four gentlemen in flowers, the messenger of four seasons famous flowers and four springs, and has a long cultivation history in China. Confucius praised this flower as "Lanying Wangxiang". Orchid remembers the hero of the great patriotic poet Qu Yuan because of its noble, elegant and unswerving character.

Second, 5 yuan paper money: Narcissus. Ye Zi is beautiful, slim and elegant, nicknamed "Ling Boxian", and is deeply loved by the people of China. Every Lunar New Year, every family's hall should be placed with a pot of daffodils, and Huang Ruibai, which is covered with daffodils like gold and silver, will always bring people happiness and fortune in the new year. Iii. 10 yuan Note: Rose. Graceful and colorful, known as the "queen of flowers", China is the origin of Chinese rose, which was introduced to Europe and won the favor of the western world. After that, it returned to its hometown in the gorgeous coat of "rose" and became famous all over the world. As one of the "four cut flowers in the world", rose has made great contributions to the development of the world economy and society, and is really a "diplomat" among flowers.

4.20 yuan note: Lotus. "Out of the mud but not stained", with high moral character, is known as "a gentleman among flowers", and the emissary of famous flowers in the four seasons was recorded as early as the Zhou Dynasty. Europeans mistakenly think that lotus originated in India, but in fact, lotus (Lotus) was spread to India from China. The application of Lotus in Indian Buddhism made it develop by leaps and bounds, and the later "Lotus Buddhism" also deeply influenced the history of China. Lotus is a friendly flower between China and India. Lotus is widely loved by people in China because of its "incorruptible" character. 5.50 yuan note: chrysanthemum. Against the wind with first frost, he is calm and wild. He is one of the four gentlemen in flowers and the messenger of Qiu Si, a famous flower in the four seasons. This flower has the wind of kings. The movie "Golden Flower in the City" is to express the heroism of chrysanthemum. Chrysanthemum has always been regarded as the flower of longevity in China, but because of the influence of westerners, chrysanthemum has become the protagonist of Tomb-Sweeping Day. However, there is another side to chrysanthemum: it is the tranquility of picking chrysanthemums, and it is the lovesickness of climbing high in Chongyang. Sometimes, a cup of sweet chrysanthemum tea can actually relieve our tired body and mind, which is the charm of chrysanthemum.

6. 100 Yuan Note: Camellia.

The fifth set of RMB coins is divided into one horn of orchid, fifty horns of lotus and one yuan of chrysanthemum. Since ancient times, people have regarded orchids as a symbol of nobility, elegance, patriotism and faithfulness. Orchids symbolize nobility. Orchids are elegant, dignified and fragrant, and have always been a symbol of noble personality. Among the four traditional gentlemen in China, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum are different from plum's seclusion, chrysanthemum's wind and frost and bamboo's integrity. Orchids symbolize the temperament of an intellectual and the introverted elegance of a nation. 1 Yuan's back: Santan Yin Yue.

The design on RMB 1 yuan is not completely realistic, and the photographer can only shoot two stone pagodas from this angle. Santan Yin Yue, one of the ten scenic spots of the West Lake, is located in the south-central part of the West Lake. It, together with Hu Xinting and Ruan Gongdun, is called "Three Islands in the Lake", just like Penglai Island in the ancient legend of China, so it is also called Zhou Xiaoying. During the Northern Song Dynasty, it became a good place to enjoy the moon on the lake. Zhang Ning, an Amin poet, said, "The sea is born in January, and the moon is printed in three pools.

In Du Fu's poem, he said, "Baidigao is the Three Gorges Town, and Qutang is a hundred prisons."

20 yuan back: Guilin landscape.

"Guilin's landscape is the best in the world", how can the country's banknotes be missing this "world-first" scenery? Guilin is a world-famous scenic city.
