General Details

If you’re looking for Gold bullion at its absolute finest, you probably can’t do any better than the Gold Chinese Panda. Backed by the Chinese government and a proven long-term favorite with worldwide investors, the Gold Panda should be near the top of the list for any serious collector.

Coming in a variety of sizes, the Panda’s one troy ounce version is perhaps the most collectible. It serves as a legal tender in China, carrying a face value of 500 Yuan (RMB). These coins are also eligible for Precious Metal IRA accounts, adding yet one more good reason to pick these up whenever you can to diversify your holdings.

History of the Gold Chinese Panda

The PRC minted its first gold coins featuring the iconic panda bear in 1982, in a variety of sizes. The single troy ounce was generally the largest coinage, although occasionally a five-ounce and twelve-ounce edition were struck. A temporary freeze on the coins halted production early in this millennium, but customer demand for their return proved so overwhelming that the Chinese government relented and re-initiated production. Such demand should give you an inkling as to this beautiful product’s sustained collectibility.

Midas Authenticity Guarantee

The panda, of course, is perhaps the most iconic animal associated with China. Suitably, then, it is the panda’s cuddly, winsome image that graces the obverse side of the coin, while the venerable Temple of Heaven in Beijing, one of the country’s oldest houses of worship, is depicted on the reverse side.

Gold Chinese Panda coins are minted at a few different facilities in China. All are backed with a guarantee by the Chinese government. There are subtle inconsistencies between the different mint locations: some coins feature a shinier finish, while others are slightly more scrupulous in their detail. But overall the quality of the coin is excellent no matter where it was struck.
