Product Details

The 2017 China Silver Panda is part of one of the world's most popular and widely collected government-issued silver bullion series. Struck by the People's Republic of China, the 2017 Silver Panda contains 30 grams of .999 fine silver. Beginning in 2016, China transitioned the Panda series from traditional troy-ounce specifications to the metric system, making the 2017 issue part of the newer 30-gram format. The reverse features the charming 2017 Panda design, depicting a giant panda seated while holding and eating bamboo. The obverse displays the iconic Temple of Heaven in Beijing, surrounded by the inscription for the People's Republic of China and the 2017 date. Unlike bullion programs that repeat essentially the same reverse each year, the Chinese Panda series is especially popular with collectors because its panda imagery traditionally changes annually. This coin is housed in a protective capsule, making it an attractive addition for both bullion investors and Panda collectors. You will receive one coin similar to the coin shown.
