This specimen was lot 74460 in Stack's Bowers Collectors Choice sale (Costa Mesa, CA, September 2025), where it sold for $216. The catalog description[1] noted, "CHINA. 20 Yuan, 2008. Panda Series. PCGS MS-69." The Chinese government has, since the mid 1980's, produced a mind boggling array of bullion related collectibles. The gold panda is one of the most popular. Prior to 2001, the one ounce panda was denominated 100 yuan. Both the SCWC and Numista describe the reverse as "Panda cut pawing mom" when "Panda cub pawing mom" is likely intended.
Recorded mintage: 200,000.
Specification: 1.55 g, 0.999 fine gold, 14 mm diameter, reeded edge, 0.050 troy oz ASW.
