China (Peoples Republic), gold 25 yuan (1/4 oz) Panda, 1993, small date (Shenyang mint), NGC MS 69. KM-A613; PAN-191B. Only four higher at MS 70 in the current NGC census for this variety. Anthony: "Despite a large reported mintage this is a surprisingly hard-to-find coin today … partly because so many were used in jewelry. Another attrition factor was the melting pot." His survival estimate is just over 4%. Unlike the largest denominations, the difference between the small- and large-date varieties is easy to see in this denomination. Mintage for both mints: 80,006 actual, with an estimated extant population <1,800 for this variety. Pedigreed to the Gansu Collection of Chinese Panda Coinage.
