Australian Lunar Series III 2022 Year of the Tiger 1oz Silver Trio Coin Set

Tiger trio

First issued for 1996 and now in its third cycle, the long-running Australian Lunar Coin Series celebrates the 12 animals of the lunar zodiac. These 2022-dated coins celebrate the tiger, whose rule over every third year in the 12-year lunar calendar is said to bestow courage, confidence and charm on people born under its influence in 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010 and 2022.

Charming tiger design

Portraying a tiger cub following its proud and protective parent across a rocky terrain, each coin features a different combination of surface treatments; a proof quality finish featuring frosted tigers on a mirror-like table, a frosted table with 24-carat gilding on the tiger and cub, and a proof table with vivid colour highlighting the tiger and cub.
