The 2000 1oz Gold Australian Lunar Series I Bullion Coin celebrates the Year of the Dragon in The Perth Mint’s Chinese zodiac bullion programme. Struck in one troy ounce of .9999 fine gold, it combines Australian legal tender status, Perth Mint production quality and a changing annual lunar reverse that appeals to both bullion investors and date-run collectors. The Dragon design is one of the most popular animals in the lunar cycle and is often treated as a stronger collector date within the original series.
