| Obverse description | Central depiction of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests at the Temple of Heaven, rendered in fine relief against a frosted field, with the surrounding marble terrace and balustrades visible at the base. The circular legend 中华人民共和国 (People's Republic of China) arcs along the upper periphery in Chinese characters, while the date 2021 appears in the lower exergue in Arabic numerals. The design is framed by a raised border separating the inner frosted field from the polished outer rim. |

China's Panda gold series changes its reverse design annually — a deliberate policy adopted in 1982 to drive collector demand and discourage melting. The 2021 issue falls within the post-2016 standardized metric weight regime, after the People's Bank abandoned the troy ounce denominations that had defined the series for its first three decades, a move that briefly disrupted international dealer pricing structures.
