| Obverse description | Central field depicts a finely detailed proof-finish rendering of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests (祈年殿) at the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, its triple-tiered circular roof and marble terrace meticulously engraved against a mirror-polished field. The legend 中华人民共和国 (People's Republic of China) arcs along the upper periphery in Chinese characters, while the date 2025 appears in relief numerals at the base of the design, separated from the central motif by a raised inner border. |

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.
