The 1/10 troy ounce gold Lunar coins of 2019 - the year of the pig - have a weight of 3.11 grams. These coins are struck in 99.99% (24carats) gold. The coins are issued in Australia at the Perth Mint. The Perth Mint also issued coins like the Kookaburra and Koala series. All coins are struck in a limited mintage which makes these coins very interesting for collectors. Because of the low weight, these coins are easy to trade.
n the obverse of this coin a pig is depicted, because according to the Chinese Zodiac, 2019 is the year of the pig. For example, 2018 was the year of the dog. The Lunar II coins are also struck in silver, but have a different design than the gold coins.
We offer these gold coins with the original coin capsule to prevent the coin from scratches. Because gold is a relatively soft and vulnerable material, we advise you to keep these coin in the capsule.
