What’s Your Sign? Find Out In This Spectacular Lunar Calendar 13-Piece Set

What’s your lunar sign? Are you the brave and courageous Tiger? A compassionate and sincere Rabbit? How about a quick-witted Rat? Or maybe you’re the most powerful sign of all, an energetic and fearless Dragon! No matter what lunar animal represents the year you were born, it’s all here in this complete 13-piece Lunar Calendar Set!

Celebrate The Chinese New Year In Style

Released on behalf of Samoa, a Polynesian island country in the South Pacific Ocean, this set features all 12 Lunar Animals on 44mm x 26.8 mm fan-shaped coins—Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig—along with a round 65 mm centerpiece coin featuring a person meditating. The obverse of each individual piece features the Samoa Coat of Arms, and the center coin’s obverse features the Samoa Coat of Arms as well as various artistic depictions of the Chinese New Year celebration.

Exquisite Legal-Tender Proof-Like Coins

Each coin in the set is 50 cents legal tender and was struck in copper-nickel (CuNi) and then layered in gleaming 24-karat gold. The 12, fan-shaped coins were each struck in 29 grams while the round centerpiece coin was struck in 89 grams. Adding to the exotic beauty of each coin is the exquisite Proof-Like (PL) finish. That means that even though these coins weren’t struck as proofs, their brilliant and reflective finish has earned them a “Proof-Like” designation, meaning they exhibit a higher-than-normal degree of reflectivity reminiscent of a Proof coin. Plus, each set comes beautifully housed in a presentation folder than can be stood up to create a fabulous desktop display.

Just 18,888 of these sets have been minted for worldwide release. That’s an incredibly auspicious number as the number “8” is consider to be lucky in Chinese culture. Will it be lucky for you? It sure will be if you act right now—secure yours today!
