Deactivation time: July 2000 1 The fourth set of RMB was issued with the development of economy, the increase of retail sales and the increase of money demand. With the implementation of the reform and opening-up policy at the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, China's national economy has developed rapidly, the urban and rural commodity economy has become increasingly active, and the retail sales of social commodities have increased substantially. In this way, not only the total amount of money issued is required to adapt, but also the structure of securities is required to adapt. In order to meet the needs of economic development, further improve China's monetary system, and facilitate circulation and transaction accounting, on April 25th, 1987 the State Council issued an order to issue the fourth set of RMB, instructing the People's Bank of China to issue the fourth set of RMB one after another from April 27th, numbered 1987. In the fourth set of RMB, there are six main currencies, including 1 yuan, 2 yuan, 5 yuan, 10 yuan, 50 yuan and 100 yuan, three sub-currencies, including 1 corner, 2/corner and 5/corner, and nine main and sub-currencies.

This set of RMB embodies a * * * theme, that is, under the leadership of China * * * Production Party, people of all ethnic groups in China are full of energy and unite to build Socialism with Chinese characteristics. In the printing process, all the main scenes use large-size portrait watermarks, and the carving process is complicated; Banknote paper has adopted full-page watermark and fixed portrait watermark respectively, which not only display line images, but also display light and dark levels.

Deactivation time: Since the reform and opening up, with the sustained, healthy and rapid development of the socialist market economy, the social demand for cash is also growing. 1998, the national net money input was102.6 billion yuan, and the market currency circulation was1120.4 billion yuan, which were 60 times and 52 times that of 1978 respectively. The objective situation of economic development puts forward new requirements for the quantity and quality, total amount and structure of RMB. The design and printing of the fourth set of RMB began at the beginning of reform and opening up, and was limited by the conditions at that time. The fourth set of RMB itself has some shortcomings, such as simple anti-counterfeiting measures, which is not conducive to RMB anti-counterfeiting; Lack of machine readability can be detrimental to the automatic processing of banknotes and so on. All these require us to issue a new version of RMB in due course.

In order to meet the requirements of economic development and market currency circulation, the People's Bank of China issued the fifth set of RMB in succession on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC) (199 10) according to Decree No.268 of the State Council, People's Republic of China (PRC). The fifth set of RMB * * * has eight denominations: 100 yuan, 50 yuan, 20 yuan, 10 yuan, 5 yuan, 1 yuan, 50 cents and 1 minute. The fifth set of RMB is based on the major currencies with low denominations in the market, which actually assumes a large number of change roles, increasing the denomination of 20 yuan and canceling the denomination of 2 yuan, making the denomination structure more reasonable. The fifth set of RMB is issued in one time and multiple times. 1 99965438+1October1,the first issue of 100 yuan banknotes; On June 6th, 2000, 20 yuan banknotes were issued with 1 yuan and 1 dime. September issue 1, 20065438, 50 yuan and 10 yuan banknotes; On June165438+1October 18, 2002, 5 yuan paper money was issued with 50 cents; On July 30th, 2004, 1 yuan banknotes were issued. In order to improve the printing technology and anti-counterfeiting technology of the fifth set of RMB, the People's Bank of China issued the fifth set of RMB 100, 50 yuan, 20 yuan, 10 yuan, 5 yuan banknotes and 1 stainless steel coins on August 3, 2005 with the approval of the State Council.

The fifth set of RMB inherits the traditional experience of printing technology in China and draws lessons from the advanced technology of foreign banknote design. The process of raw materials is improved, and the comprehensive quality and anti-counterfeiting of paper are improved. The fixed watermark has strong stereoscopic effect and vivid image. Magnetic micro-character security thread, color fiber and colorless fluorescent fiber are organically applied to paper, and a comprehensive plate-making technology combining computer-aided design, manual engraving, electronic engraving and printing etching is adopted. In particular, international anti-counterfeiting measures are adopted in the second-line and third-line anti-counterfeiting, which provides conditions for professionals and researchers to identify authenticity. Compared with the fourth set of RMB, the anti-counterfeiting technology of the fifth set of RMB has increased from more than a dozen to more than 20, and the main figures of portraits, watermarks and denominations have been enlarged to facilitate people's identification. The fifth set of RMB uses advanced science and technology, which greatly improves its anti-counterfeiting performance and adaptability to the modernization of currency processing.

The fifth set of RMB adopts the head of Comrade Mao Zedong in the early days of the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), the famous flower pattern in China on the bottom, and the Great Hall of the People, Potala Palace, Guilin Landscape, Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, Mount Tai and Hangzhou West Lake on the back. By selecting representative patterns with national characteristics, the long history and magnificent mountains and rivers of our great motherland are fully displayed, and the great national culture is promoted.
