China 10 yuan Mongolia Gadamellin Cavalry Horsemans proof silver coin 1997

The China 10 Yuan Mongolia Gada Meilin Cavalry Horsemen proof silver coin, issued in 1997, commemorates one of the most legendary figures of Inner Mongolian history. This coin is dedicated to Gada Meilin, a national hero who became a symbol of resistance, courage, and the struggle of Mongolian people against injustice in the early 20th century. His story holds deep cultural and historical importance in northern China and Inner Mongolia.

The reverse depicts a powerful cavalry scene led by Gada Meilin riding a galloping horse. He is shown raising a sword high above his head, symbolizing leadership and defiance. The horse is rendered in dynamic motion with defined muscles, flowing mane, lifted legs, and a strong posture. In the background, multiple mounted riders advance forward, some carrying flags, creating a vivid sense of movement and battle momentum. The denomination “10 元” appears clearly, along with Chinese inscriptions referencing Gada Meilin and the historical period. The mirrored proof surface highlights every engraved detail.

The obverse features a monumental architectural building with a tall central tower and symmetrical wings, rendered with precise lines, windows, and roof details. Surrounding Chinese characters identify the People’s Republic of China, while the year “1997” is placed at the bottom above decorative floral ornaments.

Struck in silver with proof quality, this coin combines historical narrative, dramatic artistry, and cultural heritage. An excellent choice for collectors of Chinese history, military themes, and commemorative silver issues.
