First minted in 1982, the Gold Panda is China's official gold bullion
coin. Commonly referred to by collectors and investors as "Pandas,"
these coins are renowned for their unadorned design and classic beauty
and contain 1/20 ounce of .999 fine gold each.
Reflecting China's rich cultural heritage and storied past, this coin
contains classic symbols of the world's most populous country. Depicted
on the obverse of this remarkable gold bullion coin is a wide-eyed Giant
Panda, shown sipping water from a placid stream. The reverse features a
rendering of the Temple of Heaven, which was built during the Ming
Dynasty in the fifteenth century as a house of worship for China's
ruling elite. The Temple of Heaven, which still stands at the southern
edge of Beijing, attracts visitors from all over the world. NOTE:
Part of the charm of the Chinese Panda is that its design varies by
year. The design on the coin you receive may differ from the coin
featured in the image.
