{{/presale}}The giant panda, a creature unknown to the Western world until the 19th century, was introduced to Western science by French missionary and naturalist Armand David in 1869. He sent a pelt and a skull to the Natural History Museum in Paris. Today, the Giant Panda is globally recognized as the symbol of the Chinese Panda bullion coin series. You can now find 2001 1 oz Chinese Silver Panda Coins available online at BGASC.
Highlights:
All of these 2001 1 oz Chinese Silver Panda Coins are available to you inside individual acrylic capsules. The Chinese Mint declared a total mintage of 500,000 coins for the 2001 release of Silver Pandas, though the mintage is believed to have been split between a domestic-only release and a wider international release. The 2001 Silver Panda design is notable as the only one to be repeated as this same Giant Panda design was used again in 2002.
Obverse
On the obverse of 2001 Chinese Silver Panda Coins, you will find the image of a full-grown Giant Panda. The panda is shown here in left-profile relief with a detailed, ornate depiction of bamboo surrounding the field.
Reverse
The reverse side of 2001 1 oz Silver Pandas comes with a depiction of the Hall of Prayer for Abundant Harvests. This view of the exterior of the building looking toward the main doors has been used on the reverse since the program’s debut. The Hall of Prayer is part of the Taoist religious site known as the Temple of Heaven Complex.
History
By the mid-20th century, giant pandas were critically endangered due to habitat loss and poaching. Efforts to conserve the species began in earnest, including the establishment of panda reserves in China.
