Chinese Gold Panda coins debuted in 1982, one year before their silver counterparts, with four weights available. The Gold Panda coins featured a 1 oz option together with 1/2, 1/4, and 1/10 oz coins. These 1 Gram Chinese Gold Panda Coins, originally the 1/20 oz coin, debuted in 1983 and have featured alongside the other four weights since 1983.
The Chinese Gold Panda and Chinese Silver Panda coins share the same design of the Giant Panda in each issue year, but there is a slight difference in the side it is considered to feature on for each coin. The Chinese Mint considers the Panda design on the obverse of the Silver Panda, but the reverse of the Gold Panda coins.
On the reverse of these 2019 1 Gram Chinese Gold Panda Coins is the image of a Giant Panda. This species of bear is native to the mountainous regions of China’s interior and is known for relying heavily on vegetation for dietary support. For example, bamboo is said to represent 99% of the panda’s diet.
The obverse of 2019 1 Gram Chinese Gold Panda Coins features the exterior façade of the Hall of Prayer for Abundant Harvests. This is the largest and most important structure in the Temple of Heaven complex, one of four major religious complexes located across the city of Beijing.
These 2019 Chinese Gold Panda Coins are all available in Brilliant Uncirculated condition from the Chinese Mint. The coins typically arrive inside of individual sheets or within a larger sheet containing 10 coins in total.
