Story

Lunar New Year

A new lunar year brings a new lunar animal to the forefront. Said to bequeath intelligence, creativity and compassion on those born under its influence, the rabbit is the fourth animal in the popular lunar zodiac.

Australian legal tender coin

Struck from aluminium bronze, the Australian coin portrays two rabbits beneath a budding branch. The design incorporates the Chinese character for ‘rabbit’, the inscription ‘RABBIT’, the 2023-year date and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.
