| Additional information |
China's Panda series launched in 1982 as one of the first bullion programs issued by the People's Republic, arriving just as Western collectors were beginning to take Chinese numismatic material seriously. The 25th anniversary issue in 2007 marked a quarter-century of a series notable for changing its reverse design annually — a deliberate policy that distinguishes it from virtually every other major bullion program and has driven sustained collector demand since inception.
