In the Chinese lunar calendar, 2022 is the Year of the Tiger. It’s said that those born under the sign of the Tiger are endowed with courage, confidence, and a natural sense of leadership. The Perth Mint has minted the magnificent 2022 Australian 1 oz Silver Lunar Tiger coin to celebrate this momentous occasion.
With a mintage of a mere 300,000 pieces, Hero Bullion is excited to offer the 1 oz variant of the 2022 Australian Silver Lunar Tiger. These highly desirable coins are struck from 99.99% pure silver and are sure to sell out quickly.
On the obverse of each Lunar Tiger is the Jody Clark depiction of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, while the reverse displays a playful tiger cub following its vigilant parent through a landscape of bamboo and ferns. The reverse design also includes the Chinese character that represents “tiger” with an inscription reading “TIGER 2022” and the Perth Mint mintmark.
In addition, the reverse of the 2022 Australian 1 oz Silver Lunar Tiger features an authentication measure: a micro-engraved letter embedded into the motif, only visible through a magnifying glass.
Key Features:
- A mintage of 300,000 units
- 99.99% pure silver
- Legal Australian tender
- Obverse Depiction: Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II as depicted by Jody Clark
- Reverse Depiction: Tiger cub and parent traveling through terrain

With a metal content of 1 Troy Ounce, this fierce feline is shipped in BU (Brilliant Uncirculated) condition, ensuring these coins are among the most perfect condition available.
The Silver Lunar Tiger’s unique reeded edge also secures the coin’s authenticity, as it helps to deter forgery.
The 2022 Australian 1 oz Silver Lunar Tiger coin is legal tender with a monetary value of $1 (Australian), backed by the Australian Currency Act 1965. The Perth Mint will cease production of this beautiful silver coin either at the end of the series or when the mintage is sold out.
This exquisitely produced coin exhibits tremendous detail and is sure to be a major seller to investors and collectors interested in Perth Mint coins, the Chinese Lunar Zodiac, and big cats alike.

Great silver coin! I received it a week ago. It is worth buying this coin, especially as a gift for various events (birthday, Christmas, etc.). Lunars have always been a special series of coins for me.
