China Panda 1 oz Gold 1986
"The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) is a species of predatory mammal in the bear family. The panda inhabits bamboo forests at altitudes of 1,600-3,500 m. Its belonging to the carnivores is unquestionable, but it actually feeds on plant shoots, mostly bamboo. It also does not disdain fish and small rodents. The classification of the panda as a carnivore is due to the structure of its digestive system. It is structured like that of animals that consume meat food. For this reason, the panda has to eat a lot, up to 40 kg per day. This is due to the fact that the panda digests only 25% of the food it eats (whereas cows, for example, digest as much as 80%). For a long time it was included in the raccoon family as a distant relative of the baby panda, but genetic studies have shown that the giant panda is related to bears, from which it separated in the early development of the bear family. Its closest relative is the Andean bear. The great panda is one of the animals on the brink of extinction, mainly as a result of its low reproduction rate, but also as a result of the gradual reduction of areas available to it." This is a gold coin that was first started to be minted in 1982. Produced by the renowned Chinese mint Shanghai Mint in premium gold (999), it is now also minted in Beijing and Shenzhen. It is slowly becoming one of the most recognisable coins in the world. Due to its appearance, it is not only a capital security, but can also be an excellent addition to a collection. It is worth mentioning that the China Panda is legal tender issued exclusively by the People's Bank of China and comes with a government guarantee of the weight and purity of the bullion. This coin comes in several weight versions and at one point was produced in seven sizes, second only to the Australian Nugget in terms of fanfare.The Averse shows the image of the panda, which changes every year.

It also features the year of issue of the coin and the inscription in Chinese "Zhonghua Renmin Gongheguo", meaning the People's Republic of China.
