China's Panda silver series shifted to a strictly bullion-driven production model by this point, with the 155.5g five-ounce format issued primarily for the international collector market rather than domestic circulation. The 2013 issue was produced at the Shanghai and Shenyang mints, both of which struck five-ounce pieces that year — distinguishable only by mint mark, a detail the People's Bank of China did not begin formally requiring on Panda issues until 2013 itself, making this transitional year particularly notable for variety collectors.
