Welcome The New Year With An Adorable Baby Ox

This little guy may not be as strong as an ox, but he is as cute as a button — and the latest release from Australia’s famed Perth Mint that pays tribute to the animals of the Chinese Lunar Zodiac Calendar. Celebrating 2021 being the Year of the Ox, this adorable coin offers a whole new representation of the venerable old ox in a way that’s sure to delight collectors the world over.

Colorful Design Features a Baby Ox

Struck in a half ounce of gleaming 99.99% pure silver, this 50-cents legal-tender coin was released on behalf of Tuvalu, an independent South Pacific Ocean island nation within the British Commonwealth. It brilliantly depicts the ox not as a lumbering beast of burden, but as dimple-cheeked baby with a shock of wavy hair for its mane, an engaging smile on its lips, and a happy-go-lucky twinkle in its eyes. Rendered in full color, our little bovine even has a gift-wrapped present — a perfect symbol for anyone whose birthday falls during the Year of the Ox. Above the little fella is an inscription that reads “YEAR OF THE OX” while the Chinese symbol for “ox” appears to the left and the Perth Mint’s famous “P” mint mark can be seen at the lower right.

Fabulous Proof Finish

In addition to its warm colorization, this coin also features a fabulous proof finish, meaning that it was expertly crafted by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields! Plus, each coin available here will come beautifully displayed in a classic presentation case with a clear lid decorated with a silver geometric design. The case has an illustrated shipper and is accompanied by a Perth Mint Certificate of Authenticity.
