Comments

Pattern coin which was designed by the Harbin Bank Labor Union in early 1930 and was manufactured by the Shenyang Mint.
Commemorates the Chinese military soldiers who died in the battle with the Soviet Union in 1929 and the battleship "Dong Yi", which made great achievements. Only very few of these patterns have been struck.
It is said that there are only three of these pattern coins existing in the world, one in the National Museum of History, one in the Shanghai Museum, and one in the Taiwan Museum. All other existing pieces are said to be replicas.
