To celebrate the 2022 Lunar New Year, the Royal Australian Mint has released a new collection of coins and investment items. The Lunar New Year is an important date that is celebrated by communities worldwide.
The legend says that the Chinese emperor Jade held a Great Race with animals. The race would determine the first twelve zodiac signs. The first twelve animals to cross a river before the end of the race would be featured in the Zodiac.
COIN HIGHLIGHTS
- Ships individually in a plastic coin sleeve
- Consisting of 1 oz 9999 Fine Gold
- Obverse: Features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by the animals of the Chinese Lunar Calendar along with the year and country of issue, and legal tender value
- Reverse: Features a depiction of a mighty-looking tiger among the clouds in a bold pose surrounded by a pine tree along with the metal weight, purity, inscription “YEAR OF THE TIGER” and the Chinese character for good fortune
The Tiger was one of the favourites to win the race, but the powerful river stream kept sending the big cat in another direction. That did not discourage the confident Tiger, which kept swimming and made it ashore after the Rat and the Ox. The Tiger is the third animal of the Chinese zodiac.
It is said that people born in the Year of the Tiger are determined, brave, and well-liked.
