Auspicious symbols of strength

The strengths of the 12 animals of the lunar calendar are said to be evident in those born during their rule. Determination, courage, confidence and charm are among the powerful characteristics that the tiger reputedly bestows on those born under its influence in 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010 and 2022.

2022 Year of the Tiger design

Honouring the lunar calendar’s third animal representative, this 2022 silver bullion coin portrays a tiger cub following its proud and protective parent across a rocky terrain. As well as the inscription ‘TIGER’ and the Chinese character for tiger, the design also incorporates The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.
