| Reverse description | The reverse features a finely detailed depiction of a giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) seated upright in a bamboo grove, holding a bamboo shoot in its forepaws and feeding. The background is richly engraved with bamboo stalks and foliage rendered in high relief, while the foreground presents a textured ground plane. The denomination 500元 appears to the left of the panda in bold numerals, and the inscriptions 30g Au 999 are incused along the lower exergue, indicating the coin's weight and gold fineness. The reverse design exemplifies the annually changing panda motif for which this bullion series is renowned. |
