2018 Australian Lunar Year of the Dog Silver Coin 2 oz

SD Bullion is proud to offer the 11th release under Perth Mint’s Lunar Series II program – the 2018 2 oz Year of the Dog Silver Coins. These coins are among the seven silver coin variants released this year – all honoring the dog, which is believed to influence the year 2018 according to the Chinese calendar. Perth Mint launched the Silver Lunar Series II coin program in 2008, along with the series’ gold coin counterparts. This coin program intended to honor the Chinese Lunar Calendar and all 12 animals in its zodiac. Each of these coins contains 2 troy ounces of 0.9999 pure silver. In fact, this is the first release in this coin program boasting the use of 0.9999 fine silver – making this release even more valuable to collectors and investors. Moreover, the coins also carry $2 (AUD) face values. A heartwarming portrayal of a dog and its pup graces the reverses of these coins. Both are seen sitting up, alert, with ears cocked. The Chinese character for the word ‘dog’ is imprinted above this image, while the phrase ‘Year of the Dog’ is imprinted below. These 2018 2 oz Year of the Dog Silver Coins are invaluable to collectors who want to maintain full sets of the Lunar Series II silver coins. Furthermore, these coins’ 0.9999 pure silver content makes them excellent silver investment vehicles – diversifying precious metals portfolios to shield against sudden market fluctuations.
