As a long-term partner of the Perth Mint, Tavex is pleased to offer one of world’s finest minted gold bullion coins, the 2017 Australian Lunar Year of the Rooster. The gold coin is part of Perth Mint’s praised chronological gold bullion collection, the Australian Lunar Series II, where each coin in the series is only minted once every twelve years in accordance with the ancient Chinese lunar calendar. In addition, the most popular one-ounce version in the series has a limited annual mintage of only 30,000 pieces, giving the coin a considerable collector’s premium in the secondary market. The Year of the Rooster gold coin contains 99.99% pure gold and is produced with a special minting technique that ensures the coin is in proof-like condition, meaning it has exceptionally shiny and mat surfaces coupled with the richest of detail. This bullion coin is truly a piece of breathtaking gold art suitable for collectors with an eye for beauty and those who wish to give their loved ones something really memorable and special.
Australian Lunar gold coin - Year of the Rooster
The Chinese lunar calendar is today used by many for Taoist cosmology. It is believed that, depending on the year of the zodiac when a person is born, a special relationship exists between the person’s personality and the animal that constitutes part of the Chinese zodiac. The animals in the zodiac are supposed to be of symbolic nature, where each animal is a representation of a specific group of characteristics and traits that can be found in every human being. There are twelve animals in the Chinese zodiac, and each of them is celebrated once every twelve years. The year of the rooster was last celebrated in 2005.
Those born in the year of the rooster are considered to be sharp and quick minded, and have an eye for detail, making them a genius at anything that needs to be analysed. They are considered to possess good people skills, which stems from their ability to communicate in a straightforward and honest, but persuasive, way. People born in the year of the rooster are perceived to be disciplined, responsible, and very practical, which makes them extremely effective when it comes to undertaking projects or work in general. However, they have one slight weakness, which is their need to be noticed and admired. This means that their posing in front of the mirror can go on for hours, and it should come as no surprise that they are the best dressed person in their surroundings. Their sharp minds and truthful and vibrant way of expressing their thoughts are qualities that others will appreciate as much as their pretty feathers. It can therefore be seen that the Australian Gold Lunar Year of the Rooster coin is an ideal gift for whoever you love or respect, since giving a Gold Lunar coin means that you are showing affection by immortalising the person’s year of birth and particular virtues in pure and precious golden artwork.
The obverse portrays the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. The reason for picturing Her Majesty the Queen stems from Australia’s membership of the United Kingdom’s Commonwealth of Nations. By being a member of the Commonwealth, Australia has Queen Elizabeth II as its reigning constitutional monarch. Above the Queen’s effigy is the text “ELIZABETH II” and “AUSTRALIA”. Inscribed below the effigy is the denomination of the coin, and the designer’s initials “IRB” – Ian Rank-Broadley.
The reverse displays a rooster standing on a rock crowing at the rising sun in the background. Inscribed to the right is the Chinese character for “rooster”, to the left is the year of mintage, and below the rooster the weight and purity of the coin.
Each coin is individually packaged in a hard plastic capsule at the Perth Mint. For bulk purchases, multiples of 20 are available in original factory packaging.
