€45.00 includes 22% VAT
The Royal Australian Mint has released the third lunar series bullion silver bullion coin, marking the start of the new lunar calendar 2022 with the Year of the Tiger.
According to legend, the Chinese jade emperor organized a great race to determine the first twelve signs of the lunar zodiac. At the end of the race, the animals had to cross the swift river, and the first twelve took their place in the lunar calendar.
The confident tiger was a loyal contender for victory, but was repeatedly carried downstream by strong currents. The tiger displayed the strength and determination that are characteristic of those born under this sign, and ultimately finished third behind the mouse and buffalo.
People born in the year of the tiger are considered bold, charming and popular. Notable tigers include Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, performer Lady Gaga and Australian Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin.
Drawings of the 2022 Lunar Series – Year of the Tiger – show a bold, strong and unpredictable brave tiger in a living form. The field for coins is decorated with a pine branch. The jaw is a symbol of strength that goes well with people born in the year of the tiger. In addition, you can see the Chinese characters for tiger, the words “YEAR OF TIGER”, weight “1 ounce” and alloy “.999 Ag “. The face side features the famous portrait of Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by 12 zodiac signs. The current character is always at 12 o’clock above the portrait. The portrait is framed with the words “ELIZABETH II”, “AUSTRALIA 2022” and “5 DOLLARS”. These silver coins are limited to 50,000 pieces and are legal tender in Australia.
