2023 Perth Mint Lunar Rabbit Quadrant 1oz Silver Proof Coloured 4 Coin Set

2023 Perth Mint Lunar Rabbit Quadrant 1oz Silver Proof Coloured 4 Coin Set

The 2023 Lunar Rabbit Quadrant 4-Coin Set is a limited-edition coloured proof silver collectible produced by The Perth Mint. Each set contains four 1 oz silver coins that together form a circular composition reminiscent of the ancient Chinese ban liang currency — a round shape with a square hole in the centre. When aligned, the coins create a panoramic scene depicting rabbits in a serene countryside setting with floral elements like cherry blossoms, cabbages, sunflowers, daisies, and nasturtiums. These artistic designs celebrate the Year of the Rabbit in the lunar zodiac and are enhanced with selective colourisation and mirror-like proof fields. Each coin features The Perth Mint’s distinctive “P” mintmark and is issued as legal tender under the authority of Tuvalu. The set is presented in thematic display packaging with a numbered certificate of authenticity.
