Coin Highlights:
All 2018 1 oz Lunar Dog Privy British Britannia Coins were struck in .999 pure silver and will arrive in protective flips. If you examine the edge of the coin, you will find its unique dog privy mark. These coins were produced by the Royal Mint, which is one of the oldest and most respected minting institutions in the world. The coins are also considered legal tender under the monetary authority of the British government.
Each year, a new animal is featured as part of the lunar cycle. There are 12 animals in total, which means every dozen years the cycle begins anew. This cycle is part of the Chinese calendar, which is used to commemorate important events and occasions. Those born in the Year of the Dog are believed to be honest, loyal, and earnest. 2018 was the most recent Year of the Dog, with the next scheduled for 2030.
