2024 China 25-oz Silver Macau Numismatic Society Expo Show Panda NGC PF70UC First Day of Issue

Gorgeous Silver Pandas From Macau's 2024 Coin Expo

The 2024 Macau Show Pandas celebrate the 25th anniversary since the city of Macau was returned to China's sovereignty. The return of Macau to China, officially known as the handover of Macau, occurred on December 20, 1999, marking the end of more than four centuries of Portuguese colonial rule. The event came after long negotiations between China and Portugal, concluding in an agreement that restored Chinese sovereignty over the territory. This year marks 25 years since that historic moment. These special commemorative Panda proofs have long been a cult classic among Panda collectors for their extremely low mintages and innovative designs. Here we have the highly coveted Macau Show Pandas that were struck for the 2024 Macau Numismatic Society's Coin Expo held November 28-30, 2024!

New Design From An Award-Winning Artist

At 100 mm in diameter, this large silver proof features spectacular designs that are highly representative of Macau and its fast-paced culture. The reverse of the 2024 Macau Show Panda features Macau Zoo panda Twins Jian Jian and Kang Kang and "Macau Numismatic Society Annual Expo 2024 11/28-30" in English and Mandarin. The obverse features a front view of the ruins of St. Paul, an old monastery turned historical site in Macau, along with two race car styles to honor the Macau Grand Prix. Above the ruins are colorized fireworks and the inscription "Commemorative of 25th Anniversary of Macau's return to China." The same inscription in Chinese, along with a colorized reference to the coin's size, are below the design. This exciting proof was designed by one of China's leading panda coin designers, Yu Min. Mr. Yu is renowned in numismatic design circles—in 2017 he became the first Chinese designer to win the Krause Publication's Life Achievement Award.

High-Grade, Low-Mintage Silver Show Pandas

Struck at China's New Century Mint in Shanghai in two ounces of highly pure 99.9% silver, the 2024 China Macau Numismatic Society Expo Show Silver Panda is a must-have for any serious collector looking to assemble a complete Panda Series set. In addition, your special Macau Expo Silver Panda has been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) as being in flawless Proof-70 Ultra Cameo (PF70UC) condition, a distinction that means your perfectly-graded proof will have ZERO imperfections—showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended. In addition, NGC has certified that your Silver Macau Numismatic Society Expo Show Panda is a First Day of Issue (FDI) proof—meaning it was received by NGC or an NGC-approved depository by the release date or on the business day within 24 hours of the official release date. 

The Las Vegas Of Asia

Founded in 1988, the Macau Numismatics Society (MNS) operates much like the American Numismatic Association (ANA). Just like the ANA, the MNS puts on an annual convention, hosts educational forums, and regularly publishes new research on coins and paper money. It's based in Macau, a Special Administrative Region of China, and encompasses the surrounding areas. Macau is an autonomous region on China's southern coast located across the Pearl River Delta from Hong Kong. Its giant casinos and malls have earned it the nickname the "Las Vegas of Asia." Not only is Macau recognized as the gambling capital of the world, but it's also one of the world's richest and most densely populated regions, boasting a per-capita purchasing power that is higher than that of any country in the world!
