The Chinese Yuan is the currency of the People’s Republic of China<\/strong>. Its ISO 4217 code is CNY. Each Yuan is divided into 10 Jiao<\/em> and each Jiao<\/em> is divided into 10 Fen<\/em>. The currency symbol is ¥  but to indicate prices they use the symbol \u5143.<\/h4>\n

History<\/strong><\/p>\n

The currency as payment has a long tradition in China. Between 1700 and 1000 B.C. they used cowries (a type of sea shells). For each dynasty emperors decided what coins were minted and who could mint them. It was even allow for individuals to mint their own currencies. In 1889<\/strong> the Yuan was introduced and soon began minting other currencies. The current Yuan was issued in 1948<\/strong> and a second issue came out in 1955 to try to curb inflation that had occurred during the Civil War.<\/p>\n

Notes and coins<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are notes<\/strong> of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 Yuan<\/strong>. In the front of the banknotes appears the image of Mao Zedong and on the back and you can see different landmarks of the country.<\/p>\n

In Eurochange we just can accept notes of 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 Yuan.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The coins<\/strong> are 1, 2 and 5 Fen, 1, 5 Jiao and 1 Yuan<\/strong>. You can also find some older coins of Jiao and Fen which remain in use today.<\/p>\n
