The National Palace Museum is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. To mark the occasion, the Bank of Taiwan, which is even older at 127 years old, is joining in the celebration. The bank has released a line of commemorative gold and silver ornaments, inspired by iconic artifacts from the museum’s collection. Sales officially began on Tuesday. Let’s hear more.

The National Palace Museum’s centennial features many events, but this is the first one in collaboration with a financial institution. At time of inflation, demand for gold rises, as gold is seen as a way to hedge against inflation. Here noble metals combine with our cultural heritage to become unique pieces in the world.
The ornaments feature gold and silver pieces in varying weights in a customized display stand, making for a wide range of prices. The most expensive item is the Jadeite Cabbage memento, which contains a 37.5g gold coin. It costs NT$152,000, and there are 1,000 pieces up for grabs. The middle range option is a vase-like ornament with a 7.5g gold coin with a fish design, priced at NT$39,800, limited to 1,500 pieces. The most affordable one is the silver piece with a gold-plated dragon design, set in another vase-like stand, which can be yours for just NT$12,900. It has 112.5g of fine silver, and there are only 2,025 units available. If you want all three, be ready to shell out NT$204,700.
