The Australian mint Perth Mint is excellent at interpreting local natural or artistic motifs, but it also specialises in references to Asian cultural backgrounds. The regular issue of numismats inspired by the Chinese horoscope may serve as a proof.

Numismatic Year of the Ox

1 ounce of 99.99% silver, over 36 mm in diameter, and up to 3.95 mm thick – these are dry data which do not highlight the coin’s greatest assets. The latter manifest themselves in its workmanship, its design. Please note that the central role is played by opal – the precious stone of Australia – emphasizing the importance of the main motif. And this motif is the ox, whose year, according to the Chinese horoscope, falls in 2021. Only 5,000 coins of this series were released, and the mintage quickly disappeared from The Perth Mint’s store. You can, however, order a copy at Coins From World!

Special features of the coin:

• Prestigious opal embellishment
• Silver – 1 oz, 99.99% purity
• Only 5000 pieces worldwide
• Set with collector’s box
• Beautiful craftsmanship and collector’s value
