The reverse side features China's "Temple of Heaven" in Beijing. • 99.9% Pure Gold Coins – Pandas are legal tender coins from China minted in solid Gold that is 99.9% pure, making them among the purest Gold coins in the world. Each Panda Gold coin is recognized as Legal Tender issued exclusively by the People's Bank of China. Collectors have always loved the attention to detail in the Panda series. We particularly love the frosted raised designs and highly reflective areas that have that reverse-proof look.

We recommend Panda Gold Coins whole-heartedly for anyone who collects Gold coins for fun or for their increasing Gold value. |

| Since the 1980's the proprietors of our firm have bought, sold, and traded Panda coins. In the past we've had the distinct honor of creating several of the Panda brochures on behalf of the People's Bank of China. Since we have vast resources and experience in this area, we felt you might enjoy more details about the Panda Series. First Released in '82 Brilliant Uncirculated Panda gold coins have been issued each year since 1982 by the official China Mint. Gold coins are issued in standard sizes of 1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/10 and 1/20 ounce. Only in 2002 and 2003 did the designs remain unchanged. For every other year, the China Mint created a fresh, new obverse design. Low Mintages Because of the high quality of the gold content, the limited mintages, the restriction on the number of coins released outside Asia, Panda coins are seldom seen in typical American coin collections. While today, the Panda gold coins trade at relatively small premiums over their gold content, they have enjoyed better than 100% premiums in the past. Please note that the premium over the intrinsic gold value charged on Pandas by the China Mint and sellers is higher than for most other gold bullion coins. In part this is due to the added cost of refining the gold to a purity of 99.99% as well as costs of shipping, handling, and distribution. This slight premium has not diminished the appeal of Panda coins among collectors but rather distinguished the Panda series as the premier gold coin in the world today. Appealing Designs Gold Panda coins are regarded by many numismatists as being among the most aesthetically pleasing coins produced anywhere in the world. The charming Panda Bear design has proven to be most appealing to coin collectors, especially the ladies. You'll often see the smaller Panda coins used in necklaces and bracelets. Anytime a coin is subjected to handling it's value as a Brilliant Uncirculated coin is diminished almost completely. For that reason, the surviving number of collectible Panda gold coins is only a fraction of the entire mintage. Most original total mintages were very small to begin with. One side of the Panda coins feature the design of the "Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests" in the Temple of the Heaven. This is one of the most popular tourist sites in Beijing, China. Recognized Worldwide Each Chinese Panda gold coin is official legal tender of the People's Republic of China, issued by the People's Bank of China. Each one bears an official face value and monetary designations. While they have always been worth far, far more than their face value, having a denomination on each coin assures its official “legal tender” status. In addition, AU .999 and the exact gold content is embossed on the face of each coin so that it is easily recognized and can be bought, sold, and traded worldwide. Pandas Soaring in Value As the price of gold has continued to rise, the value of each Panda gold coins has gone up dollar for dollar with its pure gold content. While no one can accurately project the future value of any coin collection, we feel strongly that the Panda gold coin series has an outstanding opportunity to enjoy rising premium values in the future, as they have in the past. The biggest single problem in acquiring a collection of Pandas is to find any of the past dates. Seldom will one of our clients part with even a single Panda gold coin issued in prior years. For that reason, we always highly recommend that members of the Austin Coin Collecting Society lock-in Pandas when they are first released. There is absolutely no guarantee from the China Mint on the future availability– and that's especially a problem in a rising gold market.
