Mintage figures in the Lunar Series III silver bullion collection are only set for two of the six coins in all. The 10 kilo coin is available on a mint-to-order basis only from the Perth Mint and has a maximum set at just 100 coins. The only other set mintage figure is 300,000 coins for the 1 oz option.
These 2 oz coins, along with the 1/2 oz, 5 oz, and 1 kilo coins, have unlimited mintage figures. This means that the Perth Mint will strike the coins to meet demand through the end of the 2020 calendar year. At that point, production stops and the design will no longer be available.
On the reverse of 2020 2 oz Australian Silver Lunar Mouse Coins is a depiction of two mice. For the 2020 Year of the Mouse silver design, two mice are featured crawling on a corn stalk and peeling back the husk to nibble at the corn.
The obverse of 2020 Australian Silver Lunar Mouse Coins includes a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is depicted here in right-profile relief in a design from Jody Clark. It is based on his design for the Royal Mint of England, but goes further in featuring the Queen’s neckline and shoulders. This is the first time a portrait of this type has featured on Australian coins since 1966.
The silver bullion coins from the Perth Mint’s Lunar Series III program have a micro-engraved security feature on the reverse. This is featured on all the silver coins except the 10 kilo option. This micro-engraved letter is found within the Year of the Mouse design and is visible only under magnification.
These 2020 2 oz Australian Silver Lunar Mouse Coins are in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. Individual coins are available in acrylic capsules with multiples of 100 available in boxes.
