| Additional information |
The Chinese Unicorn series launched in 1994 as a direct competitor to established bullion programs, targeting collectors rather than the investment market that the Gold and Silver Panda series already served. The 1997 issue falls late in the short run — the series was discontinued after 1998, making the final two years marginally harder to complete in matched sets.
