The Perth Mint of Australia produces some of the best looking silver coins in the world. They introduced their first series of Lunar Zodiac coin in 1996 and it became one of their hottest selling item annually since, as collectors all over the world scrambled to get their hands on these brilliantly sharp and very high quality coins.
Mintage figures varies year to year with certain key year lower than others, which makes collecting a complete set of all 12 Zodiacs even more challenging and interesting.

The Dragon Year, which coinincides with the 2000 Millenium, is very much a prized item in the market today. It's probably also one of the most intricately designed Dragon amongst all Dragon coins produced to date.
