The Chinese Gold Panda series is a widely recognized bullion collection produced by the Chinese Mint each year. First introduced in 1982, the series initially included 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz gold coins, with the 1/20 oz size joining the lineup in 1983. A signature feature of the series is the changing Giant Panda design that appears annually on the reverse. Right now, Provident Metals has 1985 Chinese Panda 1/10 oz Gold Coins featuring the Large Date variety available for purchase.

Obverse

The obverse of the 1985 Chinese Panda Gold Coin highlights the Hall of Prayer for Abundant Harvests, the largest building within the Temple of Heaven complex in Beijing. This design has remained a constant feature on the Gold Panda series since it was first introduced in 1982.

Reverse

On the reverse of the 1985 Panda 1/10 oz Gold Coin, a panda cub is seen swimming near a bamboo shoot. Panda cubs are known for their curiosity and playful nature, often climbing trees, balancing on rocks, or engaging in lighthearted wrestling with siblings. These activities help them develop strength and agility as they grow.

History

The 1985 Gold Panda design focuses on a young panda cub at play. While their playful movements may seem purely entertaining, they are essential for development. Through climbing, tumbling, and exploring their environment, panda cubs strengthen their coordination and learn important social behaviors.
