To protect the coin, it comes in a clear acrylic coin capsule. In addition, a hallmark of authenticity can be found on this 1 troy ounce gold coin.

Lunar collector coins & the Chinese zodiac
The Perth Mint's Lunar collectible coins are based on the Chinese zodiac calendar and the great Chinese race. This zodiac consists of 12 animals and every 12 years this calendar repeats. 2023 is in the sign of the rabbit. According to Chinese legend, each animal influences the personality of people born in the year of that animal. People born in the year of the rabbit are intelligent and creative, according to the legend.
