These lustrous Chinese Silver Panda coins are popular among both investors and collectors. Minted by the People's Republic of China since 1982， these coins are composed of .999 fine silver and come sealed in plastic capsules.

A major appeal of these Silver Pandas is their annually changing design. For 2015， the reverse features an adorable panda sitting in front of a bamboo fence chewing on a tree branch， with a scattering of bamboo leaves adorning the areas above and below that scenario. The coin's currency denomination is stated， though its weight and fineness are no longer present as it was in previous years. (Purportedly， this is because the Chinese Mint is marketing the coin in metric weights (grams and kilos) within China， but in imperial weights (ounces) for international markets.) Nevertheless， as always the Chinese Mint guarantees each coin's authenticity， weight， and silver content.

The obverse design features the iconic Temple of Heaven in Beijing， along with the mint year and "People's Republic of China"， represented in Chinese characters. Historically， Chinese Emperors would visit the Temple altar for annual ceremonies of prayer to Heaven for good weather and abundant harvests. Considered the most holy of Beijing's imperial temples， it has been described as "a masterpiece of architecture and landscape design". The magnificent triple-gabled circular building is built on three levels of marble stone base and is completely wooden， with no nails.
