2022 Australia 1 oz Silver Lunar Tiger (Gilded, w/Box & COA)

---

The year 2022 marked a spectacular entry in the Australian Lunar Series III, celebrating the Year of the Tiger with a stunning combination of precious metals. This legal tender Australian coin is struck from one troy ounce of highly pure 0.9999 fine silver. What sets this particular issue apart is the selective application of 24-karat gold gilding, which highlights the central design elements with a brilliant, warm contrast. On the reverse, the artistry captures the powerful essence of the tiger. The gilded feline figures stand out dramatically against the silver background, accompanied by the Chinese character for "tiger" and the inscription "TIGER 2022". The Perth Mint's traditional "P" mint mark is also cleanly integrated into this side of the coin. The obverse features the Jody Clark effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. Surrounding the royal portrait are the essential specifications of the coin, including its weight, silver purity, and the official face value of 1 Dollar. With a strict mintage limit of 25,000 pieces, this release represents a beautiful marriage of modern minting technology and ancient lunar calendar tradition.
