People's Republic gold "Small Date" Panda 50 Yuan (1/2 oz) 1998 MS69 NGC, Shanghai mint, KM1129, PAN-305A. Mintage: 2,000. A genuinely pristine survivor of this key and most desired date of the 50 Yuan Panda series. This watery, golden Gem pairs jet black fields with canary-colored devices to produce stunning visual allure. A slight wave or other imperfection in the die is visible towards the left side of the Temple of Heaven, which produces a peculiar pulsating effect to the luster.
