2022 China 1-oz Platinum World Money Fair Show Panda NGC PF70UC First Day of Issue

The Show Must Go On For This Panda Proof!

Anticipation for Berlin’s 2022 World Money Fair were running high in the months leading up to one of the coin world’s biggest events. After all, the 2021 show—the 50th anniversary show—had been canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But just when it seemed as if the pandemic was finally subsiding, a new COVID variant emerged, and World Money Fair organizers once again made the tough decision to pull the plug on the 2022 event. The 2022 show, originally scheduled January 28–30, was switched to a virtual format. While the disappointment of not being able to mingle with collectors and mint representatives is disappointing, you can still salvage something of the show thanks to the release of a spectacular Panda commemorative that was specially struck exclusively for the show!

Special World Money Fair Panda Design

Struck by the New Century Mint in Shanghai, this beautiful one-year-only commemorative contains a full ounce of highly pure 99.9% platinum. It features a pair of young pandas playing in the Berlin Zoo while a Chinese-style garden with a pagoda can be seen in the background. The design celebrates the anniversary of the birth of the Berlin Zoo’s twin panda cubs, Paule and Pit. An inscription reads “Berlin Panda Twins Birth Anniversary” in both Mandarin and English. On the obverse of the commemorative is the World Money Fair logo along with the Ishtar Gate from Berlin’s Pergamon Museum and the museum’s Nebuchadnezzar II statute. Each commemorative Proof also features its own unique laser-engraved issue number.
