Giant Pandas are known for living in small, isolated populations due to their specific dietary needs. They require large, unbroken areas of forest to support their bamboo consumption, which is crucial to their survival. A single panda may need up to 10 square kilometers of space and consumes nearly 38 kilograms of bamboo each day. Because bamboo offers limited nutritional value, pandas must eat significant amounts to maintain their health.

Each 1987-Y 1/4 oz Chinese Gold Panda Coin is carefully housed in a sealed plastic pouch to ensure its preservation. These coins also carry a Y mint mark, signifying their production at the Shenyang Mint.

The obverse of the 1987-Y Chinese Gold Panda features the Hall of Prayer for Abundant Harvests, a key structure within the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. This design has remained a defining feature of the Gold Panda Series since its debut in 1982, showcasing the intricate architecture of this historic site.

On the reverse of the 1987-Y 1/4 oz Gold Panda Coin, a panda is shown drinking from a pond. The scene includes gentle ripples on the water’s surface, with bamboo growing nearby, emphasizing the panda’s natural environment.
