Giant Pandas are perhaps the most beloved creatures in China, and the most well known by those around the world. Although the dragon is the official emblem of the People’s Republic of China, the panda is viewed fondly by most Chinese and instantly associated with the country by others across the globe.
Each of these 2011 1 oz Silver Chinese Panda Coins is available in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. Coins with a BU grade have no signs of wear and tear, but you will notice minor flaws including breaks in the luster, spotted surfaces, or contact marks from the coining process.
On the obverse of the coin you’ll notice the loving image of a mother panda as it nuzzles up to its little cub. The traditional bamboo wall is featured in the background, with engravings on this side featuring the face value of the coin as well as “1 oz. Ag .999.” Pandas are native to China, where they live in the mountainous central and southern regions.
The reverse of each coin features the outer façade of the Temple of Heaven, which is found in the south-central section of Beijing. All 2011 1 oz. Silver Chinese Panda coins feature this image, which has been in use since 1983 when the coins debuted from the Chinese Mint.
Silver Chinese Panda coins are struck annually by the Chinese Mint with the oversight of the People’s Bank of China. However, as no mint marks are used it is impossible to know which facilities in the Chinese Mint system contribute to the production of Silver Pandas.
