Lunar Series

Coins from Perth Mint's Lunar Series were produced to celebrate and commemorate the Chinese lunar calendar. The coins' designs were inspired by the ancient Chinese calendar's traditions, thus it featured all 12 animals that were central to the Chinese zodiac. Many collectors and investors from around the globe love the coins' vivid colors and bold animal designs. From featuring a beautiful golden topaz gemstones to the gallant use of rich yellow, the Lunar Series coins are a must have.

History of the Lunar Series

The first production of the Lunar Series coins started in 1999 and was known as Australian Silver Lunar Series 1. Perth Mint piloted the silver coin program with Year of the Rabbit coins. Once it ended in 2010, the Year of the Tiger coins took over. It became so popular that the second series was produced in 2008 (and will end in 2019). All Lunar Series coins are struck from .999 fine Silver, which easily makes them investment-worthy. These silver coins are both legal tender in Australia.

The Perth Mint's Australian Lunar 2017 1oz Silver Rooster coin will have a maxium mintage of 300,000 coins and sellout within days of release from the mint. It is one of the most popular lunar coins globally and has a history of secondary market appreciation.
