| Additional information |
The 2011 lunar rabbit issue falls in the second cycle of China's Gold Panda-adjacent lunar series — by this point the People's Bank had refined its approach to collector-grade gold considerably since the program's 1981 origins. The 2000 Yuan denomination at five troy ounces places this firmly in the prestige tier, produced in mintages low enough that secondary market pricing tracks gold spot with a substantial premium rather than treating it as bullion.
KM#1962 references a single-year rabbit type; the twelve-year lunar cycle means the next rabbit year issue wouldn't appear until 2023, under an entirely restructured Chinese mint licensing arrangement.
