Obverse
The obverse of this 2017 Proof Chinese Panda Silver Coin depicts a giant panda holding a bamboo stalk and sitting in front of a stand of bamboo trees. The panda looks happy in its natural setting and holding its food of choice. The only inscription is the face value of the coin, which is 300 yuan, though it’s presented in Chinese characters.

Reverse
All of the coins in this series include a common reverse, which depicts the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests building. This is a historic structure in Beijing that is part of a complex known as the Temple of Heaven. The entire complex is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The image is encircled by inscriptions that read 2017 and People’s Republic of China (which is written in Chinese characters).

Packaging
Your coin will ship in a plastic slab for protection during shipping as well as optional storage and display. The coins attached to this listing are graded PR69 by the PCGS, so they’re in near-perfect condition.

History
The Chinese Silver Panda coins have been issued since 1983 with the exception of one year. Many collectors enjoy looking forward to and hunting down the coins each year, and the iconic nature of the giant panda and meaningful history of the Temple of Heaven make the coins even more special. Emperors throughout the history of China would come to the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests to offer sacrifices and prayers to help ensure a bountiful harvest for the people every year.

These coins aren’t bountiful, though. Limited mintages mean they’re fairly rare. Get yours today at Provident Metals. Place an order online or reach out via phone, chat, or email if you need assistance. You can call us at 1-800-313-3315.
