Chinese Gold Panda coins are the official bullion specimens of the People’s Republic of China. Few coin collections have the unique history of the Chinese Panda collection. The Gold Panda was just the third gold bullion coin offered to investors following the 1967 introduction of Gold Krugerrands, while the silver bullion coin was first offered only as a proof coin. Right now, 1/10 oz Chinese Gold Panda Coins are available to purchase online from JM Bullion.

The 1/10 oz Chinese Gold Panda Coins available through this product listing are offered to you from random years of issue. JM Bullion guarantees the coins will arrive individually sealed inside of their original Chinese Mint plastic packaging, but the year of issue you receive will vary depending upon availability in our warehouse at the time you order is picked for shipping.
Chinese Panda coins followed the Gold Krugerrand (1967) and Gold Maple Leaf (1979) as the third gold coins for sale to modern bullion investors. The Chinese Mint first issued the Chinese Panda series in 1982 and introduced a Silver Panda in 1983. However, the Silver Panda was available only as a proof coin until 1985, with regular bullion production not launching until 1989.
The obverse side of the 1/10 oz Chinese Panda Gold Coins features the image of the Hall of Prayer for Abundant Harvests. This structure is just one of many found inside of the larger Temple of Heaven complex. The temple complex itself was constructed between 1406 and 1420 by the dynasty of the Yongle Emperor.
On the reverse of all 1/10 oz Gold Panda coins, you’ll find the Giant Panda. A species of bear found in the mountainous regions of China, the panda is recognizable for its black-and-white fur patches. The Giant Panda is an unofficial symbol of the People’s Republic of China.
All Chinese Panda coins are struck by the Chinese Mint. The nation’s official sovereign mint, the Chinese Mint is controlled by the People’s Republic of China and the People’s Bank of China.
