Description
Each year of the 12-year Chinese Lunar Cycle is represented by a different animal, and those born under their respective animals are thought to resemble them in personality. Those born under the Year of the Ox in 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009, and 2021 are superstitiously considered to be trustworthy and reliable hard workers. Also, in Chinese culture, the Dragon symbolizes power, strength, and good fortune. Consider gifting a loved one with a present like this coin featuring a dragon to invite luck into their future.
The obverse of the silver Perth Mint coin displays the Jody Clark portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The Queen is depicted wearing her royal crown and jewels. Inscriptions include the Queen’s name and the coin’s country of origin, weight, purity, and denomination.
The reverse highlights an adult ox standing beside its calf while underneath the shade of a cherry blossom tree. A village can be seen in the distant background. The Perth Mint “P” mintmark appears near the ox’s rear leg. The Bullion Exchanges’ exclusive Dragon privy mark sits beside the Chinese character for “Ox”.
