Separated from southeastern mainland China by the Taiwan Strait and dominated by the forested Central Mountain Range rising to Yu Shan (Jade Mountain) with its capital at Taipei, Taiwan introduced the New Taiwan dollar (TWD)—subdivided into 10 jiao and 100 fen—on June 15, 1949. Struck by the Central Mint in Taoyuan and dated according to the Minguo (Republic of China) calendar starting in 1912 (Year 1), Taiwanese circulation coins portray Sun Yat-sen, Chiang Kai-shek, plum blossoms, and indigenous Tao leader Mona Rudao on the 20-dollar bimetallic coin.
