Just Released! Absolutely Stunning 2024 China New Year Celebration Pandas in Gold, Silver and NEW Bimetal!
Dating back to ancient times, Chinese New Year is the most important holiday celebrated in China. It marks the end of winter and the beginning of spring, and is a time for families and friends to come together for several nights of reunions, food, gifts and celebration.
In 2020, a brand-new series of numismatic proofs was issued to commemorate the Chinese New Year celebration. It combined elements of the celebration itself with another popular coin series in China, the annual Panda coin series. The release of the first New Year Celebration Pandas was a smash success, completely selling out in just two days! That initial release, with its handsome designs tying into the Chinese New Year, whetted the appetites of collectors around the world who anticipated, then quickly snatched up, the New Year Celebration Pandas released the following three years.
For the First Time Ever—Bimetal!
New to this prestigious series this year is a special, Gold and Silver Bimetal Proof. The inner core is struck in ¾-ounces of gold, and the outer ring is struck in ½-ounce of silver. This brand new offering accompanies the proofs struck in 888-gram gold and 88-gram gold, and 888-gram silver and 88-gram silver—all in 99.9% fineness
Spectacular New One-Year-Only Design for 2024
Now in 2024, the New Year Celebration Panda boasts an awe-inspiring, one-year-only reverse design that combines three of China’s most revered symbols—the Panda bear, a Dragon Dancer and the Fu image—on a special collectible issued for this important holiday. Each year, the Fu symbol is prevalent during the celebration (typically hung on doors or walls), symbolizing peace and prosperity in the New Year; the dragon dancer is often seen as part of Chinese New Year festivities; and the mature Panda is reminiscent of the first China Panda coin issued in 1982. The obverse displays the Hall of Prayers in the Temple of Heaven, in exquisite detail.
Ultra-High Relief Makes These Stand Out
The obverse and reverse sides of the 88-gram and 888-gram sizes feature Ultra-High Relief (UHR) surfaces, so all of the rich detail from each image seems to jump off the surface. The Panda/Dragon (reverse) side on these sizes also features a unique concave (bowl-shaped) surface that further enhances and accentuates the UHR details.
Large Sizes in 99.9% Gold and Silver
The UHR design has even more impact courtesy of the large, impressive diameters of these Proofs. You have your choice of four different sizes struck in Gold and Silver:
• 888-gram Gold Proof (80 mm or over 3 inches in diameter)
• 88-gram Gold Proof (38 mm in diameter)
• 888-gram Silver Proof (100 mm or almost 4 inches in diameter)
• 88-gram Silver Proof (45 mm in diameter)
No matter which you choose, you’re getting an amazing China New Year Celebration Panda struck in 99.9% fineness, with a highly limited worldwide mintage.
The Best of the Best, and the First of the Best
Collectors always seek out the best quality and that’s what you have here. Each of these 2024 China New Year Celebration Pandas is certified by NGC as perfect Proof-70 Ultra Cameo (PF70 UC) condition. There is no higher grade. Each Proof has also been designated as First Day of Issue (FDI). Designations are additional attributes of a proof that can increase its collector desirability—and the designation collectors want most is First Day of Issue, which means the proofs were received for grading within 24 hours of the official mint release.
Tiny (But Lucky) Mintages
The mintages of each of the New Year Celebration Panda Proofs you have here are extremely small, especially when compared to releases in the China Mint’s annual gold and silver Panda series. Just eight (8!) of the 2024 888-Gram Gold Proofs were authorized. Just 88 of the 88-Gram Gold Proofs were authorized. Just 188 of the 888-Gram Silver Proofs were authorized. Just 888 of the 88-Gram Silver Proofs were authorized. And only 188 of the 1.25-Ounce Bimetal Proofs were authorized.
Plus, you may know that the number 8 is considered lucky in Chinese culture, especially around the New Year, which makes these mintages lucky. In fact, these Proofs could be considered “double-lucky” because, as you may have noticed, in addition to the mintages, each of the weights is comprised of “8s.”
