| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed depiction of a mother giant panda resting in a naturalistic setting alongside her cub, the composition symbolizing the continuation of parental love across generations — the mother panda being identifiable as the cub featured on the 2019 Chinese Panda coin. The animals are rendered with characteristic realism and delicate frosted relief, set against a subtly textured background evoking bamboo habitat. The face value 50 元 (50 Yuan), along with the metal specification 3g Au.999, is inscribed within the lower field, providing a clear statement of the coin's denomination, gold weight, and fineness. |

| Additional information |
China's Panda gold series has run continuously since 1982, making it one of the longest-running annual bullion programs in the world. Each year's design is changed — a deliberate policy that distinguishes the series from competitors like the Krugerrand and drives collector demand alongside investment demand. The 3g denomination was introduced in 2016 when the mint transitioned from troy-ounce weights to metric, a move that briefly unsettled Western bullion markets accustomed to the old sizing.
