1 New Taiwan Dollar coin

1 New Taiwan Dollar (Issued 1974)

The 1 dollar coin was a workhorse denomination of Taiwan’s currency, issued by the Bank of Taiwan and dated in the Republic of China calendar. Struck in cupro-nickel, it has a bright silvery appearance and a firm, durable feel, and it circulated widely for everyday transactions. The coin is round with a reeded edge and carries traditional Chinese floral designs and inscriptions.

On the obverse, a plum blossom, the national flower, is shown at the centre with its five petals and radiating stamens rendered in relief. Chinese inscriptions curve around the design, giving the issuing authority as the Bank of Taiwan and stating the year of the Republic across the upper field.

On the reverse, an orchid plant is depicted in flower, with its blooms and slender leaves spread across the field. The Chinese characters for the denomination appear above and below, marking the coin as one yuan (one dollar).
