The Chinese Mint strikes the Chinese Panda Series of coins on an annual basis. These Gold Panda coins debuted first in 1982, with the Silver Panda introduced in 1983 only as a proof option. The Silver Pandas weren’t offered in bullion on a regular basis until 1989.
All coins in the Chinese Panda Series from the Chinese Mint feature a common design element on the obverse side of the coins, that of the Temple of Heaven. The reverse side of the gold bullion coins includes the motif of a Giant Panda and the images are changed each year to add collectability to the series.

JM Bullion guarantees the coin you receive will be sealed inside of its original Chinese Mint plastic packaging.

On the obverse of the Chinese Gold Panda coins is the edifice of the Temple of Heaven. This particular building is the primary structure within the compound and is known as the Hall of Prayer for Abundant Harvests.
The reverse of the ½ oz Chinese Gold Panda coin features the depiction of a Giant Panda. This species of bear is native to south-central China’s mountainous highland regions. The bears are easily recognized around the world by their large, distinctive black patches near the eyes and its white-and-black fur.
