| Additional information |
The Chinese Panda series launched in 1982, and by the time this 25th-anniversary piece was struck, the program had become one of the few modern bullion series to change its reverse design annually — a deliberate policy that transformed what might have been a generic bullion product into an actively collected annual series. The 15 Yuan denomination itself is an oddity, existing almost exclusively within these commemorative anniversary issues rather than the standard Panda weight schedule.
