People born in the Year of the Rabbit are believed to have a calm and gentle nature, and they are often described as sensitive, empathetic, and compassionate. They tend to be diplomatic and tactful in their interactions with others, and they have a natural talent for making people feel at ease.

All of the 2011 1/2 oz Australian Silver Lunar Rabbit Coins available here come with individual protective capsules. The fourth coin available in the Lunar Series II program, this release marked only the second time the rabbit appeared in Perth Mint’s lunar collections.

On the obverse of 2011 Australian Silver Lunar Rabbit Coins, you will find a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is shown here in right-profile relief wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. This design was created in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley as the fourth-generation effigy of Her Majesty.

The reverse side of the 2011 1/2 oz Silver Lunar Rabbit Coin comes with a depiction of two rabbits. Here, the adult and young rabbit are shown amidst the foliage as the two share a bit to eat. The coin’s mint mark is visible on this side.
