中國長城硬幣

現在，2025 年精製 0.9999 美元 20 美元的純銀硬幣上以真實比例的三維彩色再現了著名的世界奇蹟

A true-to-scale, three-dimensional colorful representation of the Great Wall of China is now available on a 2025 Proof .9999 fine silver $20 coin from the Cook Islands.

庫克群島 2025 年精製 0.9999 美元 20 美元純銀幣現已採用真實比例、三維彩色的中國長城圖案。

The coin, which blends Proof manufacturing with an Ultra High Relief finish and coloring, a combination of features only available through the company’s Smartminting technology (the name is a registered trademark), is being issued by CIT.

該硬幣將精製製造與超高浮雕飾面和著色相結合，這些功能只有透過該公司的 Smartminting 技術（該名稱是註冊商標）才能實現，由 CIT 發行。

The reverse features the representation of the Great Wall of China, to its right a depiction of the same section of the Wall in low relief; Chinese inscriptions, and the GREAT WALL of CHINA 2025.

背面是中國長城的圖案，右側是同一部分長城的淺浮雕圖案；中國銘文和中國長城 2025。

The obverse shows the Chinese Lù symbol for wealth and a partially gilded cash coin with two dragons on it. As the ruler of weather and water, the dragon was thought to bring bountiful harvests and thus the wealth everyone craves.

正面顯示中國財富的象徵“Lù”，以及部分鍍金的現金硬幣，上面有兩條龍。作為天氣和水的統治者，龍被認為會帶來豐收，從而帶來每個人都渴望的財富。

Unlike its classical predecessors, the cash coin image on the 2025 coin has no characters.

與經典的前輩不同，2025 年硬幣上的現金硬幣圖像沒有字元。

Further obverse inscriptions detail the $20 denomination, king’s name and issuing country, and the Dan Thorne effigy of King Charles III.

正面銘文詳細介紹了 20 美元的面值、國王的名字和發行國，以及國王查理三世的丹·索恩 (Dan Thorne) 肖像。

The Great Wall of China spans 21,196 kilometers, and no structure in China fires the imagination more than the Great Wall. It represents both the efficient organization of the Chinese Empire and its isolation.

中國的長城全長21,196公里，中國沒有任何建築比長城更能激發人們的想像。它既代表了中華帝國的高效組織，也代表了它的孤立。

For many years, outside travelers were only allowed to enter the Middle Kingdom in exceptional circumstances. The Great Wall was not just a military fortification. Most importantly, it was a customs barrier. Anyone passing through had to pay taxes on their goods as they entered and left the empire.

多年來，外國遊客只有在特殊情況下才被允許進入中國。長城不僅僅是軍事防禦工事。最重要的是，這是一個關稅壁壘。任何經過此地的人在進出帝國時都必須為其貨物納稅。

This aligns with the nation’s thinking. According to CIT, Confucianism considered wealth to be one of the great goals in life.

這與國民的想法是一致的。根據 CIT 的說法，儒家思想認為財富是人生的偉大目標之一。
