China – “88” Colored Butterfly Medallion – Proof – 2009 – Series II – The first set of four butterfly medallions was issued by the People’s Republic of China in 2005 and can be found on our website. This set was issued recently and would make a great gift for any collector of lepidoptera or world coins. I was not able to identify the species involved, but one of our clients, Mark Schmidt, was able to provide identification as the “88”Butterfly (Diaethria clymena).
