Interesting fact

The 1989 Gold Panda coin has a unique feature - it has a frosted relief, which gives it a distinctive look. The frosted relief is achieved by applying a special technique to the die, which creates a textured surface that catches the light in a particular way, giving the coin a sense of depth and dimension. This feature sets the 1989 Gold Panda apart from other coins in the series and makes it a sought-after collector's item.
