2009 Australia 10 oz Silver Colorized Year of the Ox BU (SII)
Struck by the Perth Mint, this impressive ten-ounce silver coin from 2009 offers an artistic celebration of the Chinese zodiac. The reverse features a colorized depiction of an adult ox alongside its calf, set against a backdrop of rolling mountains. This side also bears the Chinese character representing the ox, the English inscription "Year of the Ox", and the traditional "P" mint mark. On the obverse, the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II designed by Ian Rank-Broadley takes center stage. Surrounding the effigy are inscriptions detailing the coin's weight of ten ounces, its high silver purity of 0.999, the year 2009, and the face value of 10 Dollars. Backed by the Australian government, this coin represents a remarkably scarce release within the popular Lunar Series II, with a final mintage of only 1,051 pieces.
