From the shores of Australia and the Pacific Rim to the frigid steps of the Frozen Tundra in North America, Chinese Lunar Calendar coins are popular with investors everywhere. Mints around the globe are reacting by producing their own lineup of Zodiac-inspired coins. Among the latest is the 2016 ½ oz Year of the Monkey Canadian Silver Coin, available now from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Lunar Series coins are immensely popular around the globe right now. The Perth Mint may have started the craze in 1996, but other mints are catching up and producing some of the finest lunar-inspired designs you’ll find. Canadian artist Simon Ng has created a unique and wonderful design for the Royal Canadian Mint’s 2016 ½ oz Year of the Monkey Canadian Silver Coin.
Each of these coins is a celebration of Chinese Canadian culture, with Ng (a Canadian of Chinese descent) helping create the unique image. Your purchase today ships encapsulated in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell, black presentation box.
On the reverse side of each coin is Ng’s interpretation of the Year of the Monkey. In his image a monkey clings to the branches of a peach tree and appears to stare the viewer right in the eyes. Engravings on this side include “Year of the Monkey,” “2016,” “Canada 10 Dollars,” and “Annee du Singe,” which is French for Year of the Monkey.
The obverse side of the coin bears Susanna Blunt’s 2003 depiction of Queen Elizabeth II. Featured in right-profile relief, Her Majesty’s effigy is surrounded by two simple engravings. To her left is “Elizabeth II,” while “D.G. Regina” is on the right.
The Royal Canadian Mint was founded by the ruling British authorities in 1908 to process gold and silver found in the Yukon Territories at the end of the 19th century.
