Chinese Gold Panda
Since its introduction by the People’s Bank of China in 1982, the Gold Panda coin has established a place of prominence in the world of coin collecting and investing. The obverse has been redesigned each year (except for 2002) reflecting a different view of the Giant Panda in his habitat. The beauty of each new design, its guaranteed purity and its wide range of sizes, from 1/20 ounce to the rare one kilo, has added to its appeal. The reverse of the coin depicts Tien Tien, The Temple of Heaven, one of the oldest temples in Beijing, and remains the same from year to year. The Republic of China's .999 fine gold Panda series was one of the most successful bullion coins of the 1980s. Response to these beautiful panda images was very positive and soon the gold Pandas became popular collectibles. By changing the design every year, the Chinese were able to build a steady demand for these products regardless of gold price fluctuations.Please email our Sales Team
