The initials 'IRB' appear below the queen's truncation, attributing the portrait to its sculptor. |

| Additional information |
Australia's Lunar Series II ran from 2008 through 2019, with the Pig closing out the twelve-year cycle. Perth had already completed an earlier lunar series ending in 2007, making 2019 the second time the mint produced a Year of the Pig silver dollar — a continuity that gives long-running type collectors a natural terminus to chase. Mintage on the one-ounce issues in this series was capped at 300,000 pieces, though final release figures for the Pig came in well below that ceiling.
