| Reverse description | The reverse presents a vivid and warmly composed scene of four giant pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) in a naturalistic bamboo grove setting: two cubs are depicted in the upper field amid rocky outcroppings, one juvenile panda occupies the lower left foreground gnawing on bamboo, and a larger adult panda sits prominently to the right consuming bamboo shoots, all rendered with fine frosted relief against a mirror field. Bamboo foliage frames the composition on both sides, lending depth and authenticity to the wildlife tableau. The denomination 10 元 appears in the lower left field, while the metallic specification legend 30g Ag.999 arcs along the upper border in Latin characters. |

| Additional information |
China's Panda silver bullion series, launched in 1983, broke from international convention by changing its design annually — a deliberate policy choice that transformed each year's issue into a discrete collectible rather than a fungible bullion product. The 2025 issue continues that tradition, now over four decades unbroken except for the controversial 2001–2002 period when the design was repeated, triggering significant collector backlash and a policy reversal.
Since 2016, the series shifted from a troy ounce weight standard to 30 grams under China's metrication push for its bullion programs.
