This is not a genuine banknote. Items marketed under names like "Qin Shi Huang" or similar ancient-emperor branding are novelty or fantasy pieces produced for the tourist and souvenir trade — they carry no Pick number, no central bank authorization, and no legal tender status anywhere. The People's Republic of China has never issued a note bearing the portrait of Qin Shi Huang or dated to his reign.
Catalog inclusion requires a note on provenance and the vendor's stated classification.
