Since 1982, this structure has been the central design on the obverse of the series. **Reverse** On the reverse of the 1987-S 1/10 oz Gold Panda, youll find a Giant Panda leaning over to drink from a pond. This artwork was used only for the 1987 release, making it distinct to the year. Pandas are often described as round-faced and gentle, but they are also well equipped with powerful jaws and molars for eating bamboo. **History** Giant pandas are best known for their distinctive markings. Their black fur around the eyes, ears, legs, and shoulders contrasts with the white of their faces and bodies. Adapted to mountain habitats, they have thick fur and a strong frame.
