The coin was issued as part of the third installment of the popular Lunar series, inspired by the Chinese lunar calendar. The theme refers to an animal that symbolizes prosperity, happiness, honesty, and good fortune, and plays an important role in Far Eastern culture. This issue combines the investment value of gold with an attractive collectible design. It is intended for those interested in Asian culture and Chinese astrology, as well as collectors who are building their sets of the Lunar series.
The coin’s design is distinguished by its serene, natural character and rich detail. The composition was designed to emphasize the gentleness and harmony associated with the main motif. The obverse features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II along with elements identifying the issuer, the face value, and the year of issue. The layout retains an elegant and classic character. The reverse features a single domesticated pig depicted amid stylized rocks and vegetation. The animal is rendered with great attention to detail, and the decorative background emphasizes the serene and harmonious character of the composition. The relief faithfully captures the texture of the fur and elements of the surroundings, giving the whole an elegant and naturalistic appearance.
The coin is part of the third Lunar series issued by The Perth Mint. This series is based on the Chinese lunar calendar, which dates back more than two thousand years. Each year is associated with one of the twelve animals of the zodiac.
The Pig marks the end of a twelve-year cycle and symbolizes prosperity, generosity, and good fortune. In Chinese tradition, it is considered a sign of luck and abundance. This issue was created to celebrate the year under the sign of this animal and to introduce collectors to the rich symbolism of Far Eastern culture.
