Best Answer

The official name of the Chinese currency is the Yuan, but it is more commonly referred to in China as the Remimbi - which literally means People's Currency - and this is written on the notes. The 'pence' are called Fen, there are 100 fen in 1 Yuan, there is also an additional currency name 'jiao' which denotes the units of 10. i.e. 10 Fen = 1 Jiao, 10 Jiao = 1 Yuan
