The tiger is the third in the 12-year cycle of the Chinese Lunar Calendar. Each animal is associated with just one of the years in the cycle, with each animal assigned a year based on its finish in The Great Race. In Chinese mythology, The Great Race refers to the race between the animals of the world to meet with the Jade Emperor. The mouse arrived first, hopping off the head of an ox just before the finish line. Finishing third behind the ox was the tiger.

All of the 2022 1 oz Proof Australian Silver Lunar Tiger Coins available here come with individual packaging from Perth Mint. The coin itself is held in a classic Perth Mint display case with a black base and a clear lid. The coin and case are delivered in a themed shipper that has Year of the Tiger stenciled artwork. The themed shipper includes a numbered Certificate of Authenticity from Perth Mint.

On the obverse of 2022 Proof Australian Silver Lunar Tiger Coins is an effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is shown in right-profile relief with the George IV State Diadem on her head. This portrait of the Queen is the fifth-generation effigy from the Royal Mint and is the sixth to feature on Australian coins.

The reverse side of the 2022 1 oz Proof Silver Lunar Tiger Coin comes with a depiction of two tigers maneuvering along rocks in the jungle. The parent is featured in the front of the line with a cautious gaze on the path ahead. Meanwhile, its young cub is playfully following along behind. Both sides of these coins have a beautiful high-relief strike delivering depth for the field and enhanced 3D visuals on the design.
