These 2023 Year of the Rabbit Perth Mint Lunar 0.5 oz Silver Bullion Coins were issued by Australia's Perth Mint. This lunar rabbit is the fourth release in their Series III collection.

Each coin is struck in 0.9999 fine silver and contains half a troy ounce of the precious metal. The coins are issued in protective capsules as standard.

We have more 2023 silver rabbit coins and 2023 gold lunar rabbit coins available. View the full 2023 Year of the Rabbit Collection.

Lunar Year of the Rabbit

The rabbit is the fourth animal in the Chinese zodiac, which is related to the Chinese lunar calendar.

Those born during the Year of the Rabbit are regarded as being creative, intelligent, compassionate and vigilant.

Additional Security Feature

Each coin features a micro-engraved letter within the design, only detectable under a magnifying glass.

Silver Perth Mint Lunar Coins

The Perth Mint introduced their lunar coin series in 1996, starting with the gold Year of the Rat. The silver series began in 1999 with the Year of the Rabbit.

Each coin celebrates a different Chinese zodiac sign, with each cycle lasting 12 years. Since the lunar coins were introduced they have proven to be highly collectable, with most sizes selling out very quickly.

Lunar Series III Coins

The Perth Mint's third series of lunar coins began with the 2020 Year of the Mouse (Rat). The early issues from Series I and Series II are often very hard to find, so if you're thinking about collecting we suggest you buy these earlier issues when the opportunity arises!

Obverse

The Australian coinage portrait of HM Queen Elizabeth II appears on the obverse of the coins. It was designed by Jody Clark and shows the queen from the shoulders upwards. The wording reads:

ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA

1/2oz 9999 Ag 50 CENTS

Reverse

The reverse features an inquisitive rabbit stretching up to a tree branch, with another rabbit beside it keeping watch. It was designed by artist, Ing Ing Jong.

兔 RABBIT 2023

The Perth Mint's mintmark "P" is visible to the bottom right-hand side of the reverse.
