The Perth Mint Lunar Series Program launched in 1999 with the release of Lunar Series I. This series started a few years into the 12 year Chinese Zodiac cycle, extending the series until 2010 to complete it. The Lunar Series II began in 2008 with the Year of the Mouse coin, so the Lunar Series I and II ended up overlapping by two years. Following the great success of the first two series, Perth Mint is now producing Lunar Series III, led by the release of the “Year of the Mouse” coins. These coins, minted in gold, silver, and now platinum, will precede the next round of 12 Chinese Zodiac animal coins from Perth Mint.
Those born under mouse sign (which include the years 2020, 2008, 1996, 1984, and 1972, among others) possess great intelligence, charm, and creativity. They are also known for their kindness and social skills. Be sure to snag a Platinum Lunar Mouse coin to celebrate your loved ones with birthdays during these years!
