| Obverse description | Central device depicts a highly detailed rendering of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests (Qinian Dian) at the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, shown in three-quarter frontal elevation with its distinctive triple-tiered circular roof, colonnaded galleries, and ceremonial stairway leading to the entrance. The architectural rendering is set within a raised inner circle, with the surrounding annular field bearing the Chinese legend 中华人民共和国 (People's Republic of China) disposed along the upper arc in bold Chinese characters. The date 2026 appears in Arabic numerals along the lower arc of the border. The mirror-polished field contrasts with the finely frosted architectural relief, characteristic of modern Chinese proof coinage. |

| Additional information |
The 100g gold Panda has been issued annually since 1983, but the series underwent a significant structural change in 2016 when the People's Bank of China abandoned fixed weights in favor of metric denominations — replacing the previous troy-ounce sizing that had defined the program for over three decades. That shift was partly a response to growing domestic investment demand and a deliberate move to reduce dependence on Western commodity pricing conventions.
