Lunar Year of the Dragon
Perth Mint's Australian Lunar Series III collection continues the rich tradition of minting spectacular bullion coins by portraying animal themes from the Chinese lunar calendar. The reverse design changes each year based on the Chinese lunar calendar, and the 2012 reverse celebrates the Year of the Dragon. Those born under the sign of the Chinese lunar dragon in 2012, 2000, 1988, 1976 and every 12th preceding year are said to be ambitious, successful and charismatic.
The Perth Mint Lunar Series
Known for their quality and collectibility, The Perth Mint Lunar Series is a cornerstone of many precious metals portfolios, and is produced in silver, gold and platinum. The original lunar bullion series, these coins (beginning with the Series I launch in 1996) have become some of the most widely collected around the globe, as demand originated in Asia but spread to Europe and America as investors became exposed to the design and quality. In addition to the annual design change, many investors love that the coins' select mintage limits create the potential for even greater investment return in the form of a numismatic premium appreciation. This series is so popular, the 1 oz Gold and Silver Lunars are now instant sell-outs every year!
The Perth Lunar Series I concluded in 2010, and Series II concluded in 2019. These releases have been tremendously popular worldwide, with each year selling out quickly as investors and collectors claim the coins of all sizes. As each 1 oz silver bullion coin in Series III has been limited to 300,000 coins worldwide, the prolonged popularity is ensured by the high level of collectibility as well as the stellar designs from the reputable Perth Mint.
The special colorization process used on this silver coin creates a unique way to celebrate 2012 as the Year of the Dragon!
Coin Highlights:
- Contains 1 oz of .9999 fine silver.
- Declared mintage of 15,186 coins.
- Obverse: Portrays the Ian Rank Broadly effigy of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, face value, silver weight and purity.
- Reverse: Portrays a lively, black colorized Chinese dragon with crimson red accents. Also included in the design is a flaming pearl. The flaming pearl is a symbol of wisdom in Chinese culture. Included in the design is the Chinese character for "dragon," the inscription "Year of the DRAGON," and The Perth "P" mint mark.
- Sovereign coin backed by the Australian government.
