Japan was a particular political hot potato at the time, and the KMT Nationalist Government would no doubt have been seeking to avoid any unnecessary civil unrest.

Historical Background 1929 was the beginning of a new chapter in the history of the Republic of China, with the announcement on December 29 th 1928 that all flags of the Beiyang Government were to be replaced by the flag of the Nationalist Party, thereby symbolically reunifying China under one rule and bringing the Warlord Era 1916 — 1928 to an end. Selecting a Design At this critical political juncture new silver dollars were commissioned by the central government. The design was to feature Sun Yat-Sen one of the founding fathers of the Republic of China who had recently died in 1925 on the obverse, with an image of a Chinese sailing junk on the reverse. In 1929 mints from the UK, USA, Austria, Italy, and Japan were asked to propose designs for the new Chinese silver dollars. These foreign proposal designs are easily identified in comparison with the Junk Dollars that actually went into circulation: the circulation coins have the junks sailing to the right; the foreign proposals to the left. The foreign proposals, never actually in circulation, are very rare but do occasionally appear for sale. They are understandably very valuable. In 1932 the silver Junk Dollar was officially announced as the currency of the Republic of China by the Ministry of Finance. The reverse face featured a Chinese junk, sailing to the right, with three birds flying above the mast tops. The 1932 year 21 issues had a mintage of 2,260,000. Unfortunately for this short-lived design, with the national symbol of Japan being the rising sun, and people being only too quick to spot this, the design was changed to one that might be perceived as less pro-Japanese for the sake of social and political unity throughout China. Japan was a particular political hot potato at the time, and the KMT Nationalist Government would no doubt have been seeking to avoid any unnecessary civil unrest. The birds and — more importantly — the rising sun were ditched from the reverse face, with Junk Dollars dating from 1933 and 1934 having the plainer and less politically controversial design. Scrapping the Silver Standard, and Bringing it Back… Briefly The commodities price for silver had risen considerably during the 1920s and 30s, resulting in an exodus of silver coins from China, making it almost impossible for the Chinese government to maintain the silver standard and support the national currency, leading to its near collapse. To counteract this, both the circulation of silver dollars and silver ownership by Chinese citizens was banned in 1935, and paper currency was introduced to replace it. The wanton and uncontrolled printing of paper money during the Second Sino-Japanese War 1937 — 1945 led to rampant inflation. In 1949, shortly before the Communist Party of China CCP took over, with confidence in the value of paper money and other provincial currency forms at rock bottom, the silver standard was once again adopted by the KMT government. That year the KMT commissioned the USA to strike an additional 30,000,000 Junk Dollars, but using the 1934 year 23 dies. The reverse face shows a two-sailed Chinese junk, sailing to the right. Three birds appear above the ship, and a rising sun to the right. This round coin is struck in silver with a fineness of 0. The 1933 and 1934 coin types are also round silver pieces with a fineness of 0. They typically weigh 26. Mintages, as mentioned above, for the 1933 and 1934 issues are 46,400,000 and 128,740,000 respectively.
