About Chinese Pandas

Since the first Panda coin was issued in China in 1982, the panda bear design on the reverse side has changed every year thereafter (except the year 2002), while the obverse depicts an outdoor scenery of The Hall of Prayer inside Beijing’s Temple of Heaven. The reverse design is selected from a variety activity poses of the giant panda, such as bamboo-eating, tree-climbing, self-amusement, and group play. These images of the giant panda’s loving charm and silliness are depicted with vivid clarity on the coin. Today the Panda coin has crossed the quarter-century mark as the last 28 years have seen many coins from gold, silver to platinum and palladium. There is no doubt that the Panda coin has become the most outstanding of all precious metal coin series in modern day China.
Lovely Giant Panda Bear! Big head! China 1997 1oz gold panda bear coin
The giant panda is not only the national treasure of China, but it is also the shared treasure of all people around the world. The giant panda’s multitudinous postures and charming appearance has won the hearts of the public. Because it is considered endangered, the Chinese government hs already given the giant panda status as the top environmentally protected wildlife animal. It was also chosen to be the symbol of the World Wildlife Fund. The People’s Bank of China commissioned the China Mint company to produce and issue worldwide a series of commemorative coins using the giant panda bear as its theme. Through a complex foundry design process, the beauty of the giant panda is vividly shown through every detail on the coins. In addition, the distinct design and superior craftwork has resulted in China’s panda bear coin series to become a popular collector’s item among coin enthusiasts.
