A highly original and beautifully crafted Lunar release, the 2022 Perth Mint Lunar Tiger Rotating Charm 1oz Antiqued Silver Coin celebrates the power, courage, and confidence of the Tiger through innovative design and traditional symbolism.
Struck from 1oz of 99.99% pure silver, this unique coin features a rich antiqued finish, deliberately styled to evoke the surface of an ancient artefact. At the centre of the design sits a striking rotating tiger-shaped charm, crafted from 18-carat gold-plated sterling silver, secured on a pin that allows smooth movement while remaining firmly in place.
Surrounding the charm are artistic depictions of tigers, each bearing forehead stripes that resemble the Chinese character for “king”, reinforcing the tiger’s status as a symbol of leadership, strength, and protection. The reverse also includes The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, completing the design with authenticity and prestige.
In Lunar tradition, the Tiger is associated with determination, bravery, and confidence. Those born under its influence — including 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010, and 2022 — are said to possess natural leadership qualities and fearless spirit.
With a limited mintage of just 3,000 coins worldwide, this rotating charm issue stands out as one of the most distinctive modern Lunar collectibles. A perfect fusion of movement, symbolism, and fine silver craftsmanship, it is a standout addition to any Lunar or novelty coin collection.
