Fen (Chinese: ; pinyin: fēn), or sin (Chinese: ) in Cantonese, is a unit of currency used in Greater China, including People's Republic of China, Republic of China (Taiwan), Hong Kong (called cent in English) and Macao (called avo in Portuguese). One fen is equal to one-hundredth of a yuan or tenth of a Chinese jiao.

  • Renminbi were issued in coin denominations of 1, 2, and 5 fen[1] and also banknotes denominations of 1, 2, and 5 fen.[2]
