The Chinese Lunar Calendar serves as one of the greatest inspirations for the design of modern collectible coin programs, as well as certain annual release bullion programs. The Royal Canadian Mint has gotten in on the act in recent years, releasing its own designs inspired by the animals of the Zodiac. The 2017 1 oz Proof Canadian Silver Year of the Rooster Coin is available today from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
On the reverse side of the 2017 1 oz Proof Canadian Silver Year of the Rooster Coin you’ll find the design from Canadian artist Aries Cheung. The stylized depiction of the rooster on this face captures the observant, self-confident nature of the rooster. In the background you can see a stylized depiction of the sun rising above a winding river.
The obverse face of each Canadian Silver Year of the Rooster coin includes the familiar portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Created in 2003 by Susanna Blunt, this is a right-profile portrait of Her Majesty that includes engravings of her name and “D.G. Regina” surrounding the portrait.
The Royal Canadian Mint’s Lunar Series has reached its eighth year, celebrating the Year of the Rooster. It is said that the rooster loves to be the center of attention, and has a witty, self-assured nature. Those born under the sign of the rooster are said to share these traits. Other Royal Canadian Mint Year of the Rooster releases include a Lunar Lotus silver coin and the gold version of the popular series.
Each of these 2017 1 oz Proof Canadian Silver Year of the Rooster coins ships in a brilliant satin-like display box with a custom shipping sleeve that is red. These coin are a must-have for any collector who values Zodiac-themed coins.
The Royal Canadian Mint was founded in 1908 in Ottawa to provide the nation with its own sovereign mint. Today it continues to operate the original Ottawa facility, as well as a secondary location in Winnipeg.
