A landmark exhibition showcasing highlights from the Shanghai Mint Museum's prestigious collection of commemorative coins and medals has arrived in London. Titled COINect, the exhibition is now open to the public from June 8 to 14 at the historic former Royal Mint Court.

上海薄荷博物馆著名的纪念硬币和奖牌收藏的具有里程碑意义的展览，已经到达伦敦。该展览名为Coinect，现已在6月8日至14日在历史悠久的前皇家造币厂法院向公众开放。

The exhibition, spanning over a century of Chinese cultural and artistic expression through coin design, is being presented outside of China for the first time.

该展览跨越了一个世纪以来通过硬币设计的中国文化和艺术表达，首次在中国境外展出。

Speaking at the opening ceremony, Bi Haibo, minister counsellor of the Chinese Embassy in the UK, said the two mints in Shanghai and London, both standing by the river, make this moment of China-UK cultural dialogue more vivid and tangible.

中国大使馆在英国大使馆的开幕式上说，上海和伦敦的两种薄荷架都站在河边，这使中国 - 杰无言文化对话的时刻更加生动和切实。

He noted that each entry in a medal and coin design competition shown at the exhibition reflects the passionate creativity of young people from both countries, as well as their shared aspirations for a better world.

他指出，在展览中展出的奖牌和硬币设计比赛中的每个参赛作品都反映了来自两国的年轻人的热情创造力，以及他们对更美好世界的共同愿望。

The exhibit has more than 100 sets of coins and medals from the Shanghai Mint Museum's collection on display, reflecting the institution's 105-year history. Spanning across themes like heritage, innovation, and cross-cultural dialogue, the displays include pieces inspired by cultural landmarks like the Great Wall and Terracotta Warriors to modern achievements in aerospace and high-speed rail. Overall, the collection reflects more than a century of design evolution.

展览中有100多套硬币和上海薄荷博物馆收藏的奖牌，反映了该机构105年的历史。跨越遗产，创新和跨文化对话等主题，这些展示包括受文化地标的启发的作品，例如长城和陶师勇士在航空航天和高速铁路中取得现代成就。总体而言，该系列反映了一个多世纪的设计发展。

“We are pleased to present highlights from the Shanghai Mint Museum outside of China for the first time,” said Dr. Pearl Haoqing Wang, curator of COINect. “Rather than focusing solely on monetary value, this exhibition highlights coins and medals as commemorative artifacts and historical records that preserve collective memory and cultural values.”

Coinect策展人Pearl Haoqing Wang博士说：“我们很高兴第一次介绍上海薄荷博物馆的亮点。” “与其仅专注于货币价值，不如将硬币和奖牌作为纪念伪像和历史记录，这些硬币和奖牌保留了集体记忆和文化价值。”

Professor Trevor Hoey, provost of Brunel University London, highlighted the enduring influence of innovative design in his remarks at the event. He reflected on the legacy of coinage through history, noting that both ancient and modern examples demonstrate how thoughtful design can transcend time, lasting across centuries and generations.

伦敦布鲁内尔大学教务长特雷弗·霍伊（Trevor Hoey）教授在活动的讲话中强调了创新设计的持久影响。他反思了历史上的造币遗产，并指出古代和现代的例子都表明了周到的设计可以超越时间，持续了几个世纪和世代。

According to the event introduction, several interactive elements are designed to enhance the visitor experience, including digital displays, hands-on design activities, and a public vote for the Our Water UK-China Youth Coin Design Competition, with the winning entry to be minted.
