In Chinese astrology, the ox is one of the twelve animal signs of the Chinese zodiac. People born in the Year of the Ox are believed to possess characteristics such as diligence, determination, and reliability. Each animal in the zodiac is associated with specific personality traits, and the ox is seen as a symbol of hard work and prosperity. Right now, 1997 1 oz Australian Gold Lunar Ox Coins are available to purchase online from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each of the 1997 1 oz Australian Gold Lunar Ox Coins offered here comes with a protective capsule. The Gold Lunar Ox was the second release of the Lunar Series I collection and marks the early era of a collection that has grown to become one of the most popular in the world. The 1997 1 oz Gold Ox had a maximum mintage of 30,000 coins, with Perth eventually selling just 13,709, the lowest volume for the 1 oz gold coins in Lunar Series I.
In Chinese mythology, there is a creation story involving the ox. According to one version, the goddess Nuwa used mud from the Yellow River to create humans. However, she grew tired and needed help, so she dipped a rope into the mud and had an ox drag it across the land, creating a trail of humans in its wake. This myth illustrates the ox’s role in the creation of humanity in Chinese folklore.
Queen Elizabeth II is found on the obverse of 1997 Australian Gold Lunar Ox Coins. This portrait of Her Majesty was the third of her reign and was designed in 1985 by Raphael Maklouf. In this design, she wears the George IV State Diadem. This design is widely regarded as a timeless depiction of the Queen.
A powerful ox is depicted in the reverse design of the 1997 1 oz Gold Lunar Ox. In this design, the mighty ox is shown in left-profile relief as it looks back over its figure. The size of the ox is captured standing on a field of grass with a beaded border around the field.
