A total of 35,000 coin sets will be issued. Each set costs NT$400.
This coin set consists of five coins, NT$1, NT$5, NT$10, NT$20 and NT$50, as well as a commemorative medal bearing a colored image of Qingshui Cliffs on obverse and an image of Formosan Sambar Deer on reverse. The set showcases the Taroko National Park and various natural resources within, such as Yanzikou, Changchun Shrine, Shakadang Trail and Buluowan Terrace. It also depicts some of the abundant animals and plants found in the park, including Formosan Yellow-throated Marten, Highland Red-belly Swallowtail Butterfly, Nakotaizan Epilobium and Taroko Oak.
