Explore our range of Perth Mint Lunar Series II Coins, featuring one of the world’s most successful and widely collected modern precious metal coin programmes. Issued by The Perth Mint between 2008 and 2019, Lunar Series II continued the tradition established by the original Lunar Series I, celebrating the twelve animals of the Chinese Zodiac through annually changing designs struck in fine gold and silver.

The series follows the traditional twelve-year zodiac cycle, featuring:

  • Mouse (Rat)
  • Ox
  • Tiger
  • Rabbit
  • Dragon
  • Snake
  • Horse
  • Goat
  • Monkey
  • Rooster
  • Dog
  • Pig

Perth Mint Lunar Series II coins are internationally recognised for their exceptional artwork, limited mintages and investment-grade precious metal purity. This category includes a wide variety of releases, including:

  • Gold Lunar Coins
  • Silver Lunar Coins
  • Platinum Lunar Coins
  • Proof and bullion editions
  • Fractional gold and silver issues
  • 1oz, 2oz, 5oz, 10oz and kilo coins
  • Coloured, gilded and high-relief editions
  • Coin sets and special releases

Most Lunar Series II coins were struck in .9999 fine gold or silver and issued as Australian legal tender. Bullion editions were produced to investment-grade Brilliant Uncirculated standard, while proof issues were struck using specially prepared dies and polished blanks to achieve mirror-like finishes and frosted detail.

Collectors particularly value Lunar Series II for its combination of relatively accessible mintages, a broad range of sizes and strong global collector demand. Certain releases — especially Year of the Dragon coins from 2012 — are among the most sought-after modern Lunar bullion coins due to exceptionally high international demand and limited availability. Earlier low-mintage proof and kilo issues are also highly prized among advanced collectors. Community discussions frequently rank Lunar Series II among the finest modern bullion coin series ever produced.

Many Lunar Series II coins were supplied in official Perth Mint presentation packaging with numbered certificates of authenticity, while selected examples have been professionally graded by PCGS or NGC. Complete twelve-year sets remain especially desirable among collectors seeking full zodiac collections from one of the world’s leading modern coin series.
