2017 100 Yuan China Gold Panda Coin 8 Grams .999 Gold PCGS MS70 First Strike

Chinese Gold Panda coins are very popular with coin collectors worldwide.

The Chinese Gold Panda is a series of gold bullion coins issued by the People's Republic of China. The official mint of the People's Republic of China introduced the Panda gold bullion coins in 1982. These coins have been created for the demanding coin collector as a tribute to China's endangered Giant Panda Bears.

The obverse features an image of the building that has appeared on the coin since it was first issued, the Temple of Heaven's Hall of Prayer for Abundant Harvests. The building has three tiers, and its stairs extend directly toward the holder. The image is encircled by a solid rim frame that has two inscriptions, one of which is "People's Republic of China" in Chinese and the other of which is the date, "2017."

This year's reverse design features an adult panda eating bamboo leaves. A wall of bamboo shoots serves as the image's backdrop. The coin's face value, weight, and purity are also included.
