Frequently Asked Questions

Tell me about the history of the Perth Mint Lunar series?

The Perth Mint Lunar Series is renowned for its exquisite bullion coins that honor the Chinese zodiac. With a history spanning nearly three decades, the series has evolved significantly, offering a wide range of gold and silver coins for investors and collectors alike.

Key Highlights

First Coin Struck: 1996 (Year of the Rat)
Series Iteration: Currently in Series III (as of 2024)
Original Focus: Gold bullion coins only (later expanded to silver)

The Early Years (Series I: 1996-2007)

The Perth Mint pioneered the Lunar bullion market with Series I, launched in 1996 with the Year of the Rat. Initially, the series featured only gold coins in four sizes:

1 oz
1/4 oz
1/10 oz
1/20 oz

There was just one numismatic release that year, catering to collectors rather than bullion investors.

Due to its success, silver coins were introduced in 1999, significantly expanding the program. By the mid-2000s, the silver lineup included 36 different variations, appealing to a broader audience.

Gold offerings also expanded:

2000: Introduction of 2 oz, 10 oz, and 1 kg gold coins.
2004: A 1/2 oz gold coin was added.
2006: The series reached its peak with a massive 10 kg gold coin.

Series I concluded in 2007 with the Year of the Pig.

Lunar Series II (2008-2019)

Series II began in 2008 (Year of the Rat) and continued the tradition of high-quality gold and silver Lunar coins. The designs were refreshed, and the series maintained its popularity among collectors and investors.

Notable developments included:

Expanded silver offerings, including rectangular coins and colourised editions.
Continued production of large gold coins, including 1 kg and 10 oz sizes.

Series II concluded in 2019 with the Year of the Pig, completing the second 12-year zodiac cycle.

The Current Chapter: Series III (2020-Present)

As of 2024, the Perth Mint is in Series III, which began in 2020 (Year of the Mouse). The series continues to innovate with stunning designs and special editions.

2024: Year of the Dragon

The 2024 Dragon coin is particularly sought after due to the dragon’s cultural significance in Chinese tradition. Additionally, the Perth Mint celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2024, marking all coins with a special “P125” mintmark, enhancing their collectibility.

2025: Year of the Snake

The 2025 Lunar Snake coin continues Series III with:

Elegant designs featuring the serpent, symbolising wisdom and prosperity.
Available in gold and silver, with various sizes (1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, etc.).
Special finishes, including proof, colourised, and high-relief versions.
Bullion and numismatic releases, catering to both investors and collectors.

The snake is the sixth animal in the zodiac cycle, and its coin is expected to be highly popular, continuing the Lunar Series’ legacy of exceptional craftsmanship.

From its humble beginnings in 1996 to its current global acclaim, the Perth Mint Lunar Series remains a premier choice for bullion and numismatic collectors.
