2023 1 oz Chinese Silver Panda

The 2021 30 Gram Chinese Silver Panda Coin

Chinese Pandas display some of the cutest designs among the most beloved silver coins, starring Pandas as the motif for every annual edition.

The Series, which also comprises gold coins and several sizes, debuted in 1982 using troy ounces as a standard measurement unit. As the national measurement system changed, the coins also changed their patterns.

The traditional 1 oz Silver Panda became the 30 Gram Silver Panda Coin, containing the same 99.9% pure silver, a face value of 10 Yuan, and legal tender status.

For those who appreciate a diversified investment portfolio with physical bullion included and those who enjoy the chance to exhibit beautiful pieces, Chinese Silver Pandas are a must-have item.

The 2023 Design

As the annual editions showcase a new Panda design, 2023 has an exclusive image of this cute mammal in its natural habitat.

Instead of one, the 2023 obverse design has two pandas. In the image, one panda is on the floor, trying to help the other get down from higher foliage. The coin’s description regarding weight, metal content, and fineness – “30 gr Au .999” – is aside, and the face value of 10 Yuan is on the lower right.

The Temple of Heaven in Beijing stamps the reverse side in a central position. Chinese characters meaning “The People’s Republic of China” arches over the temple, while the year of mintage is on the bottom.

The Silver Pandas

Silver Pandas debuted in the bullion market in 1983, one year after the Gold Pandas, but in proof versions and limited editions of 10,000 units per year. In the beginning, Silver Pandas did not maintain a regular strike, and several branches of the Chinese Mint would make them, contributing to minor variations among the coins produced. In 2016 China adopted the metric system, and the coins are now weighed in grams.
