Description: 2010 AUSTRALIA $15 LUNAR II YEAR OF THE TIGER 1/10 Oz GOLD BU COIN. VERY RARE! ****THE PICTURES SHOW THE COIN YOU WILL GET******** EXTREMELY HARD TO FIND, this fractional Year of the Tiger pure gold stunner (in vibrant full color) offers a beautiful and economical way to own .9999 fine gold! Observing the fearsome carnivore that is the tiger, whether in nature or in a zoological park, we mere humans can't help but be awestruck by the size, strength, and elegance of this majestic creature. The tiger (Panthera tigris) is easily one of the most intriguing, most beautiful, and most endangered great animals in the world. It is also one of the two most auspicious animals on the Chinese lunar calendar (the other being the Dragon), a feline made all the more desirable by the Perth Mint's execution in 4 9s pure gold, artistically rendered in what the Perth Mint refers to as its "specimen" or "bullion" finish, which we would call a reverse proof finish, with frosted fields and mirrored devices. Even better is the price! Leave it to the Perth Mint to make the luxury of a .9999 fine gold coin affordable for everyone! Availability NoteThese rare, vibrant tigers were struck exclusively for the Asian market. We have managed to acquire a few of these full color, hard to find, yet affordable, gold tigers, long sold out at the Mint. Get them while you can! Investment Note This artistically-rendered beauty contains a full one-tenth troy ounce of four nines (.9999) pure gold. Its weight represents a most popular fractional size of gold, small enough to be economical for almost any collector. Technology Note The marvelous minting and refining technologies of the Perth Mint have brought us this affordable gold coin, in a purity (99.99%) that puts other, larger gold coins to shame! Obverse A meticulously rendered, close up view of a noble and handsome tiger's face. The Chinese character for "Tiger" appears above, while below the legend YEAR OF THE TIGER defines the theme. The Perth Mint "P" mint mark appears along the rim in the 4:00 position. Reverse Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, in crowned profile facing right. This portrait, featuring Her Majesty wearing a tiara and pearl earrings, was executed by the sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley. The legend 1/10 OZ 9999 GOLD guarantees the weight and purity. The legends ELIZABETH II, AUSTRALIA and the denomination also appear.
