PandaAmerica released several medals along with the American Numismatic Association World’s Fair of Money in Denver which will take place between 1st and 5th August. The medal features a panda against a Bamboo on the obverse while the reverse features "Rocky Mountains". The reverse has a text that celebrates ANA’s 126th anniversary. The release has been a part of the effort to popularise the show in Asia. The medals will be a permanent part of the Panda collection.

A 30 grams Proof .999 fine silver medal and a Proof ringed-trimetallic piece composed of copper, brass, and copper-nickel sections are available. Two piedfort versions are expected to be delivered from China in a few days. The standard examples have a mintage limit of 888 while the piedfort versions have a mintage limit of 100 each.

These medals had a great demand at the Singapore International Coin Fair as well. A good number of these medals have been reserved to be sold exclusively at the show, even though there has already been a demand online. The ringed-trimetallic medals cost $39 each while the silver medals cost $99 each.
