Mints around the world release new lunar-themed bullion coins annually. Few are as popular and storied though as the Perth Mint’s Lunar Series. This 1999 1/2 oz Australian Silver Lunar Rabbit Coin is not only the first year of issue for the silver series, but it also contains a unique P100 mint mark for the mint’s 100th anniversary. Secure your silver coin right here, at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
The Lunar Series from the Perth Mint debuted in 1996, but just with gold coins. Silver coins in the series were introduced with this 1999 Year of the Rabbit release. The first year saw 5 unique sizes be released, ranging from this 1/2 oz silver coin to a 1 kilogram option. Lunar Series II debuted in 2008, followed by Lunar Series III in 2020.
The obverse of this 1999 Australian Silver Lunar Rabbit Coin shows Ian Rank-Broadley’s portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The Queen is seen in right-profile relief bearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland diamond tiara.
The reverse of the 1999 1/2 oz Australian Lunar Rabbit Coin features a rabbit. In this design, the rabbit is seen standing on a grassy patch. Identifying marks of the coin surrounds the animal, including the traditional Chinese character for the animal as well as the P100 mint mark for the 100th anniversary of the Perth Mint.
Each 1999 1/2 oz Australian Silver Lunar Rabbit Coin arrives inside a capsule to preserve your silver during transit. Notably, this coin is the smallest silver release for 1999 issues in Perth Mint’s Lunar Series.
