The Chinese Mint offers the coins of the Chinese Panda coins in gold, silver, and, as of 2022, platinum. The long-standing option is the Chinese Panda Gold Series, a collection that has been available since 1982. Throughout the course of the program, gold proofs have been issued in this series as well, often with distinctive weights. Provident Metals currently has 2005 Proof Chinese Panda 5 oz Gold Coins available to you for purchase online.
Highlights:
When you purchase the 2005 Proof Chinese Panda 5 oz Gold Coin online at Provident Metals, you will receive a coin that is packaged individually. These particular coins come with individual capsules and are sealed in plastic. These are proof specimens with mirrored fields and frosted design elements.
Obverse
For the obverse design of the 2005 Proof Chinese Panda Gold Coin, the mint features the longstanding Hall of Prayer for Abundant Harvests design. This visual shows the exterior of the building. The Hall is at the center of the Temple of Heaven Complex. Inscriptions on this side include the name of the nation of issue, as well as the date mark of 2005.
Reverse
In the reverse design field of the 2005 Proof Panda 5 oz Gold Coin, the Chinese Mint features an exclusive design used only in 2005. This image features two seated pandas eating bamboo. The panda to the right is a larger adult, while a young cub is on the left. Inscriptions include the face value of 2000, as well as 5 OZ AU .999.
History
Chinese Panda Gold Coins, as well as their silver counterparts, have long used new Giant Panda designs each year. The only exception to this rule was the 2002 release that repeated the 2001 design. Due to backlash from investors and collectors, the Chinese Mint reverted to the use of new annual designs and has not repeated an image since.
