A rooster motif is placed in the lower-left corner, consistent with the 2017 Year of the Rooster theme.

The Panda Gold Coin commemorative banknotes issued by the People's Bank of China are tied directly to the gold bullion coin program launched in 1982 — among the earliest modern bullion programs in Asia, and one of the few that changes its reverse design annually. The 2017 commemorative paper issue was released alongside that year's coin series, functioning as a collectible companion piece rather than circulating currency.
These notes are printed by the China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation and are typically sold through authorized numismatic channels in sealed presentation packaging, which means genuinely circulated examples essentially do not exist.
