Above the rim, the four characters\"Zhong Hua Republic of China\"(Republic of China) are engraved in official script, and below, the five characters\"Kai Guo Ji Nian Bi\"(Founding Commemorative Coin) are also in official script. Long floral patterns adorn both sides. The reverse features the vertical official script characters\"Yi Yuan\"(One Yuan) and a jiahe (auspicious grain) pattern in the center. The periphery also has a double-ring design (an inner line circle and an outer beaded circle). Above the rim,\"THE REPUBLIC OF CHINA\"is engraved in English, and below,\"ONE DOLLAR\"is engraved in English. Five-pointed stars are arranged on the lower left and right, hence it is known as the\"Lower Five-Pointed Star Version.\"The characteristics of this coin are: the five-pointed stars are located at the bottom, the five-pointed stars on both sides are properly positioned, the spacing between the five-pointed stars and the English text is closer, and there are no errors in the English letters. After Yuan Shikai usurped power and became president, the minting of this coin was quickly stopped. Due to its short minting period and limited circulation, it is particularly rare and valuable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"0\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/%E5%9B%9E%E6%94%B6%E5%AD%99%E5%B0%8F%E9%A0%AD\" title=\"Sun Yat-sen commemorative coin\"\u003eSun Xiaotou\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/%E9%8A%80%E5%B9%A3\" title=\"silver coin\"\u003eSilver Coin\u003c\/a\u003eCommon Versions In-depth Analysis: Differences Between the Lower Five-Star and Other Versions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"1\"\u003eMany collectors often confuse different versions when exploring the\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"8\" data-path-to-node=\"1\"\u003echaracteristics of the Republic of China Founding Commemorative Coin versions\u003c\/b\u003e.
