Panda Coins

Explore our range of Chinese Panda Coins from The London Coin Company — one of the world’s most iconic and internationally recognised modern bullion coin series. This category includes gold, silver, and platinum Chinese Panda coins issued by the China Mint, available across multiple weights, annual designs, and collector formats, including bullion, proof, brilliant uncirculated, and certified graded issues.

First introduced in 1982, the Chinese Panda series is renowned for its annually changing reverse design, making it one of the few major global bullion programmes where the artwork changes every year. This unique design feature, combined with high-purity precious metals and strong international demand, has made Panda coins highly sought after by both investors and collectors worldwide.

The obverse of each coin typically features the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, while the reverse showcases the beloved giant panda in a new design each year, creating a continuously evolving series that appeals strongly to date-set collectors.

Chinese Panda coins are issued in multiple metals and formats, including gold, silver, platinum, and limited special issues, with a wide range of sizes from fractional coins through to 1oz and larger investment pieces.

Chinese Panda coins are especially popular due to their combination of annually changing artistic designs, multiple metal types, and strong global liquidity. Each year introduces a new panda design, making the series highly collectable for date-set builders while still maintaining strong bullion investment demand.

Silver Pandas transitioned from 1oz to 30g in 2016, reflecting China’s move to metric standards while maintaining the series’ global appeal and recognisable design language.

Platinum Panda coins are significantly scarcer, with limited historical production and lower mintages, making them particularly desirable among advanced collectors and investors seeking rarity within the series.
