2022 Australia $1 1-oz Silver Lunar Year of the Tiger Gilded BU
Australia’s 2022 Lunar Coin Pays Tribute To The Powerful Tiger
Those born during the year of the tiger are regarded as being natural leaders blessed with courage, charm and confidence. It’s no wonder that in Chinese culture, the Tiger is regarded as the king of all beasts. A symbol of strength that can ward off evil spirits, many children in China and the Far East wear clothing decorated with tigers for good luck. Now the sleek and powerful tiger is the theme for the third release in Australia’s Lunar Series III program that celebrates animals in the Chinese zodiac.
A Bold Image Of A Mother Tiger And Its Cub
Struck in a full ounce of 99.99% pure silver, the legal-tender one-dollar 2022 Australia Lunar Year of the Tiger Silver Coin depicts a she-tiger with its cub while a rocky terrain featuring ferns and bamboo can be seen in the background. Above the tiger is the Chinese symbol for “Tiger.” The design is made even more fantastic thanks to the Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) finish that features razor-sharp details that are as fresh and crisp as they day the coin left the mint. You can even see the famous “P” mint mark just to the right of the mother tiger!
Spectacular 24-Karat Gold Gilding
These coins are further augmented by the addition of selective 24-karat gold gilding. Smoothly spread evenly across the tiger and her cub, the startling contrast between the gleaming silver and the brilliant gold creates a piece that stands out among other coins. Each coin will come in its original government packaging from the mint consisting of a classic display case with a clear lid decorated with a silver geometric design. The case has an illustrated shipper showing the story of how the tiger became the third animal of the zodiac and is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
