The Perth Mint's lunar series has been very popular since its first release for their limited mintages and beautiful designs.

This 2017 edition will continue the stellar tradition, since 2017 marks the first year of the silver Lunar coin being minted in .9999 finess.

Obverse side: Portrays Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by the date, face value, Silver weight and purity.

Reverse side: Features a rooster, a hen, and three chicks standing amongst bamboo foliage and flowers. This beautiful lunar design also incorporates the Chinese character for "Rooster", the inscription "Year of the Rooster", and The Perth Mint's traditional "P" mintmark.

Comes in a protective plastic capsule.
