The year 2015 marks the Year of the Goat on the Chinese Zodiac, and Australia’s Perth Mint honors those born under the sign of the goat by including the animal on the 2015 1 oz Australian Silver Goat. Part of the Mint’s Lunar Series II program, the Year of the Goat coin continues the popular trend of silver bullion coins featuring the animals from the Chinese Zodiac. Today, you can purchase your own 2015 1 oz Australian Silver Goat from JM Bullion with an MS69 grade from the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation.
Coin Highlights:
Each of the 2015 Australian Silver Goats available through this listing received a Mint State 69 grade from the NGC. An MS69 grade is the second highest grade any coin can earn. Coins with an MS69 grade have an attractive, sharp strike, and the full original luster remains for the date and mint. There are no more than two small contact marks or flaws on the coin’s surface. The contact marks are considered minuscule and are not visible without the aid of a microscope. No hairlines are visible and the flaws are not found within the primary focal areas of the coin.
Australian Silver Goat coins are part of the Lunar Series II coin program, which was first introduced in 2008 as a continuation of its popular Lunar Series I program. Each creature in the Chinese Zodiac represents human emotions, behavioral traits, and characteristics. The goat represents elegance, a calm nature, and sympathy. Each coin in this series is struck with .999 fine silver.
On the reverse side of the coin is the image of a family of goats grazing in their natural habitat. Engravings on this side include “Year of the Goat” and the Chinese symbol for goat. The obverse side of the coin includes the image of Queen Elizabeth II, as designed by Ian Rank-Broadley.
The Perth Mint is the oldest in Australia. Though it is not associated with the Royal Australian Mint, it has a history that stretches back to the 19th century when it was part of the United Kingdom’s Royal Mint system on the continent.
