    Hi guys,

    I have noticed that the NGC site:
    http://www.ngccoin.com/priceguide/c...hineseSetID=881&subcat=gold-panda-coin-prices

    makes a distinction between some years with a "D" after the year. For instance a "2001D gold panda 20 yuan ms" has a different listing to a "2001 gold panda 20 yuan ms".

    Is this in reference to the date on the coin being written if a different type set or something else?

    Cheers.

    Danny

    Yeah, the "D" marked coins were produced only for domestic China and has a "D" on the left hand side of the coin.
