Join SD Bullion and the Perth Mint in celebrating the very final releases under the Lunar Series II Silver Coin Program! These 2019 10 oz Australian Lunar Year of the Pig Silver Coins are one of the heavier silver coins issued this year.
The Lunar Series II Coin program attained instant popularity when it was launched, thanks to the success of the first Lunar Series program. These 2019 releases bring the second Lunar Series program from the Perth Mint to a close after a memorable 12 years of annually-changing designs and fine releases.
Each of these particular coins contains 10 troy ounces of 0.9999 pure silver. Moreover, every coin bears a face value of $10 (AUD) -- highlighting its legal tender status in Australia.
The obverse sides of these coins bear the famed Ian Rank-Broadley portrayal of Queen Elizabeth II – highlighting the legal tender status of these coins. Her name and the name of the issuing country is imprinted near the riml. Furthermore, the face value of the coin, the year of issue, and the purity and weight of the silver in the coin are also visible on this side.
However, it is the annually-changing designs on the reverses that make every release unique. Since 2019 is the Year of the Pig, this coin features a marvellous rendition of a pig . The artist captures the traits that are attributed to the people born under this zodiac quite well -- depicting honesty, loyalty, a childlike earnestness, and sincerity.
These 2019 10 oz Australian Lunar Year of the Pig Silver Coins will make brilliant additions to both coin collections and precious metals portfolios. Collectors and enthusiasts can finally complete their Perth Mint Lunar Series II Silver Coin sets, while adding 0.9999 pure silver to their assets at the same time.
