2009 Australia 1 oz Silver Year of the Ox BU (Series II)
The year 2009 marked a special release in Australia's celebrated Lunar Series II, honoring the Year of the Ox. Struck in one troy ounce of 0.999 fine silver, this legal tender dollar carries the official backing of the Australian government. It represents a harmonious blend of meticulous minting standards and cultural artistry, originating from the historic Perth Mint. On the reverse side, a peaceful pastoral scene unfolds, showing an adult ox alongside a young calf with rolling hills rising in the background. This side also incorporates the traditional 'P' mint mark, signaling its origin, along with the inscription 'Year of the Ox'. The obverse displays the elegant, classic portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Ian Rank-Broadley. Surrounding the royal effigy are inscriptions detailing the coin's weight of one ounce, its high silver purity, the 2009 issue date, and the face value of one dollar.
