Perfect pig coin in 1oz silver with gold highlights

The perfect gift or collectable for those born under the sign of the Chinese lunar pig, this 1oz silver coin with 24 carat gold highlights the social, inquisitive and highly intelligent animal.

Those born under this sign, the final of the Chinese lunar calendar, tend to be honest, loyal, sincere and generous, with a calm temperament. Their birth years include 1923, 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007 and 2019.

Stunning gilded design

The reverse of the coin features a domesticated pig highlighted in pure gold, standing with her four little piglets. The Chinese character for ‘pig’ and the inscription ‘Year of the Pig’ appear in the design with The Perth Mint’s traditional ‘P’ mintmark.
