1997 5 Yuan China 1/20 oz Gold Panda. PCGS MS69 Large Date Mirror Serif
5¥ Yuan China Gold Panda. 1/20 oz 999 Fine Gold. The 1997 5 Yuan 1/20 oz.
Small Date gold Panda is a product of the Shenyang Mint. Despite a large reported mintage this is a surprisingly hard-to-find coin today. This is partly because so many were used in jewelry. Another attrition factor was the melting pot as there were few collectors for this size Panda when it was new. This was also a time period when many other series of Chinese coins were in the spotlight and collectors, or even hoarders, for this coin were few. There are two major varieties of the 1997 gold Pandas: Large Date and Small Date. The most obvious difference between the two versions is that the numerals of the Small Date are more slender than those of the Large Date. A sub-variety of the Large Date is the Mirror Leg Gap and Frosted Leg Gap. We are happy to help! Please note: We are human also and sometimes make mistakes on listings!
