10 Yuan Fu

China's annual gold Panda series, of which this is the latest small-denomination fraction, has been struck continuously since 1982 and is notable for changing its reverse design every year — a deliberate policy that has made date-specific collecting the primary driver of demand. The 1g fraction was introduced to broaden accessibility, and the series as a whole was briefly interrupted in 2001 and 2002 when the People's Bank issued coins with identical designs across both years, an anomaly that remains the most contentious episode in the series' collecting history.
