The Royal Canadian Mint brings the Chinese Zodiac to life with the Fine Silver Lunar Series, celebrating the 12 year lunar calendar. Each year is represented by 12 distinct animals. The RCM will release one coin, annually, from 2010-2021. Each coin is dedicated to the animal of that year, and the design captures the essence of the traits each animal possesses.
The 12 year cycle, along with the saying attributed to it, is as follows:
Each round in the series is composed of 1 oz .9999 Fine Silver and holds a face value of $15. The obverse features the effigy of the current and longest reigning monarch- Queen Elizabeth II. The reverse features the animal of the year, along with the inscription, “CANADA 15,” at the top and “15 DOLLARS” at the bottom.
