The Chinese Gold Panda series has been a key part of the gold bullion market since 1982. It was the first major coin program to feature a new design every year, making each release unique. For the Gold Panda, the change happens on the reverse, where a different image of the Giant Panda is introduced annually. Right now, BGASC is offering 1992 1/2 oz Chinese Gold Panda Coins with Small Date engravings.

Each 1992 1/2 oz Chinese Gold Panda Coin comes in a sealed plastic pouch for protection. These particular coins are Small Date examples, meaning they feature a version of the date with more compact number shapes compared to the Large Date versions. This variation is often noted by collectors who enjoy the series.

Obverse

The obverse side of the 1992 Chinese Gold Panda Coin features the Hall of Prayer for Abundant Harvests, a historic temple building located in Beijings Temple of Heaven complex. The coin shows the buildings front view and has been the standard design on the obverse since the series began.

Reverse

On the reverse side of the coin, a young panda cub is shown climbing among tree branches. While the image is charming, it also reflects the way cubs learn essential survival skills through play and movement.

History

Panda cubs are naturally active and curious, and climbing trees is a common part of their growth. It helps them build strength and confidence, and this behavior is featured on the coins reverse as the cub explores its surroundings.
