China's First-Ever Super Selectively Blackened Metal Moon Festival Panda

Each year since 2015, China's Moon Festival Panda series has been highly anticipated for delivering unique, beautiful and innovative designs that commemorate the nation's annual Moon Festival. And the 2022 edition is no exception with the debut of the very Moon Festival Pandas with a selectively plated blackened metal finish. A wonderful new aspect, you can see the blackened metal surfaces on the Panda bear's ears, eyes, and leg areas. And now, collectors can own one of these elaborate and complex Moon Festival Pandas as a magnificent limited-edition silver proof.

Engaging One-Year-Only Panda Design—With First Ever Commemorative Privy Mark!

Though not a legal-tender coin, this medal was struck by China's Shenzhen Guobao Mint in 88 grams of highly pure 99.9% fine silver. It features an engaging one-year-only design depicting a juvenile Panda clinging to a tree with a large outline of the Moon in the background. The inscription "Moon Festival" appears in both English and Mandarin around the rim. The medal's obverse shows the Great Wall of China along with the Shenzhen Mint's "Z" mint mark, a feature rarely used on the releases in China's Panda series. In addition, a special "Lucky-8" Privy mark is being added to this year's release to celebrate the eighth anniversary of this spectacular series. You can the special mark on the reverse just below the crater-pocked full moon! This is the FIRST TIME that a special commemorative privy mark has appeared on this annual series!
