Announcement and Pictures Coming Soon
We will be attending the Perth Mint's European launch of its new Year of the Dragon coins, in Frankfurt on 24th August 2011.
Although we have had a preview of the designs, these are under an embargo until then, when we will bring you full news.
To facilitate production, the Perth Mint usually staggers the releases of different weights and metals over a period of a few months, however we expect to have stocks of the first products released, by early September 2011, and the rest of the range in one or two tranches before the end of the year.
The images on this page are of the year 2000 issue, but we will replace them with the 2012/13 as soon as possible.
Please watch this space.
One Ounce Silver Bullion Coins
Australia first issued a one ounce silver bullion coin, the Kookaburra, in 1990.
In 1999, it was decided to issue a Chinese Lunar Year series of silver bullion coins, following the success of the gold versions which started in 1996.
Size Range of Silver Bullion Coins
The 2012 "Chinese Lunar Year" series are expected to be available in a range of weights from half ounce up to ten kilos.
