2017 China 30-gram Silver and 5-gram Gold Auspicious Offspring Proof 2-Piece Set

Celebrating Ancient Chinese Culture and Well Wishes -- in 99.9% Pure Gold and Silver!

For centuries, Westerners have been intrigued by a variety of aspects of Chinese culture, not the least of which is its rich symbolism. Through these Offspring Proofs and other coins, the Auspicious Culture series of the China Mint brings aspects of that culture to coin collectors. Auspicious Culture is similar to Feng Shui. It is centered on symbolism that brings good luck. The reverse of these coins features two such symbols, pumpkins and butterflies. The pumpkins represent abundance, luck for descendants, illustrious children, and prosperity, while butterflies represent love and marriage. On the obverse of each coin is the national emblem of the People’s Republic of China. The emblem consists of the Tienanmin Gate of the Forbidden City under an arrangement of five stars.

• Limited Mintage – 30,000 gold and 60,000 silver pieces will be issued, a tiny fraction of the annual Chinese Panda issues!

The relatively new Auspicious Culture Series has proven extremely popular among collectors. Not only does it offer symbolism from an ancient country with millennia worth of tradition, but it also does so in a way that is visually appealing to collectors who have eyes for the artistic. In fact, while some knowledge of Auspicious Culture would certainly enhance a holder’s appreciation of these coins, even one without such knowledge could appreciate the visual appeal of these coins. Although they bear symbols of abundance, the number of these coins is scarce. Ensure that you have the good fortune to own them by ordering yours today at GovMint.com!
