Must-Get Souvenir

Beginning today, the Chinese government will issue a 10-yuan note (about $1.45) in commemoration of the upcoming Olympic Games in Beijing. As you can see, it features the Games' official "dancing seal" logo above China's National Stadium (referred to as the "Bird's Nest"), site of the opening and closing ceremonies, as well as competition events for athletics (track & field) and football (soccer).

Do you know where I could access this Yuan because I have not seen one around Beijing. Is the Yuan a scarce find, or will they be millions scattered throughout Beijing and be easily accessible?
