2020 1/2 oz Silver Lunar Year of The Mouse / Rat BU Australian Perth Mint In Cap

 

This 2020 1/2 oz Silver Lunar Year of The Mouse Coin is a part of the very first release in the Lunar Series III from the Perth Mint. In 1999, the Perth Mint released the Lunar I series, which immediately achieved widespread acclaim. In 2008, the Perth Mint started releasing the Lunar II series beginning with the "Year of the Mouse".This caused the two series to overlap between 2008 and 2010. The Perth Mint is rolling out its third Lunar Series with the brand-new Year of the Mouse coin.

The Lunar programs’ high purity content and striking zodiac designs make it a very popular series. Each year the Perth Mint releases a new Zodiac Lunar coin depicting the Chinese Zodiac character for that year.

The Zodiac symbol for 2020 is the Mouse. People born during this year are considered to be courageous, enterprising, and problem-solvers. These traits often make someone a great business-person. Though those born during this year sometime show traits of stubbornness and pickiness, their friends and family appreciate their friendliness and general positive attitude.

The obverse of this Zodiac coin features the Jody Clark effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Inscriptions encircling the obverse include the denomination, weight, and purity of the coin.

The reverse of the coin features two adorable field mice standing on stalks of corn. The mice share the reverse with various inscriptions.
