2007 1/2 oz Australian Silver Lunar Pig Coin
Product Description
Perth Mints Lunar Series programs have become favorites among investors and collectors.

The Year of the Pig is the twelfth and final year in this sequence. Right now, 2007 1/2 oz Australian Silver Lunar Pig Coins are available from BGASC.

- Arrives in a plastic capsule!
- 9th coin in the Lunar Series I silver program!
- Final mintage of 32,495 coins!
- Contains 1/2 Troy oz of .999 pure silver.
- Bears a face value of $.50 (AUD) backed by the federal government of Australia.
- Obverse depicts Queen Elizabeth II.
- Reverse features a pig standing amidst a pile of leaves.
Each 2007 1/2 oz Australian Silver Lunar Pig Coin comes in a protective plastic capsule. The 2007 Year of the Pig release is the ninth coin in the Lunar Series I silver collection. Even though the silver coins started being minted a year later in 1997, the series was extended to 2010 to complete the 12-coin set and match the Zodiac cycle.
Obverse
The obverse of the 2007 Australian Silver Lunar Pig features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This image, created by Ian Rank-Broadley in 1998, depicts the Queen in right-profile relief wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. This was the fourth official portrait of the Queen during her reign.
Reverse
The reverse design of the 2007 1/2 oz Silver Lunar Pig Coin shows a small pig. The pig is depicted standing on all fours in right-profile relief with a small pile of leaves beneath its feet.
History
The five types of Pig personalities are based on the five elements of Chinese cosmology: Metal Pig, Water Pig, Wood Pig, Fire Pig, and Earth Pig. Each element imparts unique characteristics to the individual’s personality and fortune.
