| Reverse description | A giant panda is depicted in three-quarter view, facing left, rendered in exceptional high relief with finely engraved fur detail, seated amidst a naturalistic bamboo grove with scattered bamboo stalks and leaves filling the field. The Latin legend '1oz Au .999' arcs along the upper periphery, denoting the coin's weight and fineness, while the denomination '500元' appears in the lower field in bold raised numerals and Chinese character. The overall composition conveys a strong sense of depth and naturalism characteristic of the Chinese Panda bullion series. |
