Product Details

The lavish allure of Australian gold coins is unmistakable, and the 2017 Gold Lunar Year of the Rooster offers an exquisite example of such craftsmanship. Struck from 2 troy ounces of .9999 fine gold, this issue from the Perth Mint demonstrates both the artistic and numismatic excellence that makes it highly desirable among collectors and investors alike. The Year of the Rooster, part of the second series of Lunar Gold Coins from the Perth Mint, celebrates those born under the Rooster sign, often described as hardworking and observant. This exceptional gold piece captures the dignity and meticulous attention to detail that investors and collectors expect in gold bullion, while adding a cultural dimension that adds to its unique allure.

Rich in symbolism, the design of this gold coin features an intricately detailed rooster, modeled in stunning relief by the renowned artist Ing Ing Jong. The imagery is complemented by the Chinese character for Rooster and the inscription "Year of the Rooster," ensuring its connection to the traditional lunar calendar. On the obverse, the coin presents the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Ian Rank-Broadley, lending an air of regal authority and continuity. This design unites themes of prosperity and tradition, making it an intriguing addition to any numismatic portfolio.

The Perth Mint has spared no effort in ensuring the quality of these precious metals. Utilizing advanced minting techniques and rigorous quality control, the mint achieves a fine finish that rivals the top bullion products in the world. The two-ounce size is particularly cherished for its scarcity, marrying aesthetic beauty with a substantial gold investment opportunity. Historical precedence combined with modern craftsmanship situates this gold piece in a prized category of bullion-collectible hybrid products.

The economic virtues of gold, with its long-standing reputation as a secure store of wealth, are buttressed by its cultural significance within the Lunar series, making it a compelling acquisition whether you're enhancing an investment portfolio or broadening a numismatic collection. With increasing demand for finite gold resources and the additional auspicious element of the Lunar theme, this coin is designed to appeal across multiple buyer demographics, including seasoned investors and cultural enthusiasts alike.

Should the beautiful narrative embedded in this gold rooster piece capture your attention, think not only of the tangible growth in value but also consider its potential as a lasting family treasure. We invite you to explore this outstanding coin as a part of your enduring collection, ensuring a legacy that echoes throughout time.
