The 2021 1/2 oz Silver Lunar Ox is the second release in the Perth Mint's Lunar Series III, celebrating the Year of the Ox—a symbol of diligence, dependability, and perseverance in Chinese culture. Struck from ultra-pure .9999 fine silver in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, this coin blends traditional symbolism with the Perth Mint's world-class craftsmanship.
Design Insight:
The ox and calf imagery highlights not only strength and endurance, but also family and generational loyalty. The detailed background of bamboo-symbolizing resilience-adds a layer of meaning and artistry.
Collector Note:
A powerful addition for collectors born in the Year of the Ox (2021, 2009, 1997, 1985), and essential for those assembling the complete Lunar Series III. Its .9999 purity and limited production enhance its bullion and numismatic appeal.
