拍品描述： 1979年国际儿童年纪念金币1盎司 NGC PF 69

1979年450元加厚金币。国际儿童年。 发行量仅500。极为罕见的加厚金版别。编者仅在2016年见过另一枚，当时连同加厚银版(较为常见)以美元$120,000(含佣金)拍出。非常别緻的版别。1959年《儿童权利宣言》通过后，联合国儿童基金会在此二十年间的贡献良多。为显示对其支持，联合国教科文组织将1979年定为"国际儿童年"。此版别为当时的活动之一。此版别以全球青少年为主设计，期望能引起大众的关注并引来更多捐款以帮助有需要的儿童。此类钱币彰显了全球为对抗如飢饿、贫穷和缺乏教育等问题而付出的努力。

CHINA. 450 Yuan Gold Piefort, 1979. International Year of the Child. NGC PROOF-69 Ultra Cameo. KM-P2. Mintage: 500. An incredibly RARE offering of this double weight issue in gold, with the only other appearance at auction located by this cataloger being an example that sold in 2016 (along with the silver piefort issue--far less difficult to obtain) for a hammer of $120,000 (plus buyers fee).An interesting and captivating type, this was part of the movement enacted by UNESCO in 1979 to make that year the "international year of the child," an act supporting UNICEFs 20th anniversary for the Declaration of the Rights of the Child in 1959. Attention was drawn to the issues faced by the worlds youth, with the hope of raising both awareness and funds to support those in need. Coins such as this piece were part of the global effort to combat issues like hunger, poverty, and a lack of education.
