Australia 2007 $10 Gold Proof - Lunar Pig
The first in the RAM's lunar ten dollar coin series, struck to incredible proof condition in pure gold.
Every year the Chinese look forward to the coming sign of the year which they believe will play a big part on how fate will affect them for the rest of the year.
Perhaps due to the popularity of the Perth Mint's lunar coin products, in 2007 the RAM released it's first coin in a new series of coins featuring the 12 animals from the Chinese lunar calendar.
The reverse of the ten dollar proof gold coin dated 2007 represents a pig surrounded by Chinese inspired patterns which include the Year of the Pig Chinese character. This character is also brilliantly displayed on the outer packaging.
Each coin contains 1/10ozt (3.11g) pure gold, and has a maximum mintage of 7,500 coins.
People born in the Year of the Pig are thought to be honest, tolerant and loyal friends, but they tend to expect the same from everyone else, and more often than not they end up disappointed. Pigs thrive in the arts as entertainers and can make skilled lawyers.
Besides 2007, other Years of the Pig are 1995, 1983, 1971, 1959, 1947, 1935, 1923, and 1911.
This gold coin comes in its original capsule and presentation case accompanied with a Certificate of Authenticity.
