1oz Silver Lunar Coins

Explore our range of 1oz Silver Lunar Coins, featuring official one-ounce silver issues from The Royal Mint’s Lunar and Shēngxiào collections. Struck in .999 fine silver and weighing 1 troy ounce, these coins celebrate the animals of the Chinese Zodiac through annually changing designs that combine traditional symbolism with modern British minting craftsmanship.

Each 1oz Lunar silver coin showcases a different zodiac animal, including the Dragon, Tiger, Rabbit, Snake, Horse, Rooster, Monkey and Pig, alongside the official portrait of the reigning monarch. Royal Mint Lunar issues are available in both bullion and proof formats, with proof editions struck using specially prepared dies for enhanced detail and mirror-like finishes, while bullion issues are produced to investment-grade Brilliant Uncirculated standard.

The Royal Mint first introduced its modern British Lunar silver series in 2014 with the Year of the Horse release, expanding annually with new zodiac designs created by artists including Wuon-Gean Ho and Harry Brockway. Modern bullion issues feature 1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver and carry a £2 face value as UK legal tender.

1oz Silver Lunar Coins are highly sought after for their annually changing artwork, limited mintages and strong collector appeal across both UK and international markets. Many proof examples are supplied in official Royal Mint presentation packaging with certificates of authenticity, while bullion issues are typically issued in protective capsules. Selected coins are also professionally certified by PCGS or NGC for added collectability.
