The Chinese Mint introduced the Chinese Panda Gold Coins in 1982 with 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz specimens available. One year later, in 1983, the mint expanded the series to feature a 1/20 oz gold coin. In 2016, the mint switched all of the marked weights on the coins from Troy ounces to Grams. This move was said to bring the series in line with the nations use of the Metric system.

Obverse

For the obverse face of the Chinese Panda 1 oz Gold Coin, the mint always uses the exterior image of the Hall of Prayer for Abundant Harvests. This is the largest building in the Temple of Heaven Complex, a Taoist religious site that is one of four such locations in the city of Beijing. The Temple of Heaven was built between 1406 and 1420.

Reverse

In the reverse design element, the Chinese Panda 1 oz Gold Coin comes with images of the Giant Panda. The Chinese Mint is famous for changing the image of the Giant Panda on the reverse every year. This bullion series was the first of its kind to use new designs for each date mark. The only exception to this you will find is the 2002 coin that reused the 2001 design.
