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.
