In 2016, the Royal Mint continued its celebrated Lunar series with a design celebrating the Year of the Monkey. This modern British legal tender coin contains one troy ounce of 999 fine silver, combining precise metal purity with an elegant artistic vision. The production was limited to a maximum of 138,888 pieces distributed globally, making it a distinctive release from the United Kingdom. On the reverse side, the artwork by Wuon-Gean Ho depicts two rhesus monkeys in active motion as they swing through a canopy of tree branches. This lively scene is accompanied by the inscription denoting the Year of the Monkey, alongside the 2016 release year, the weight, and the silver purity. The obverse side displays the fifth official portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, paired with the face value of 2 pounds.
