Special Label for Chinese Aerospace Bimetallic ¥10 Coin

Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) will offer a special label for the 2015 Chinese Aerospace Bimetallic ¥10 coin that is scheduled to be released on November 26, 2015. This circulating commemorative coin is comprised of two different copper alloys, a composition that was previously used for China’s highly popular 2015 Bimetallic Goat 10 Yuan.

NGC has created a special aerospace-themed label for these coins, which depict China’s Shenzhou-9 capsule docking with the Tiangong-1 space lab along with a history of flight. The label will be available for all submissions of the 2015 Chinese Aerospace coins, including those made at NGC’s December 2015 Shanghai on-site grading event.

NGC will also offer its popular “Early Releases” and “First Releases designations for 2015 Chinese Aerospace ¥10 coins received by NGC within 30 days of the coin’s release (November 26). For Early Releases and First Releases cutoff dates, click here.
