| Additional information |
Part of Perth Mint's long-running lunar and wildlife bullion programs, this issue belongs to a series capitalizing on growing collector demand from Southeast Asian markets, where the Vietnamese pot-bellied pig carries strong associations with the 2019 Lunar New Year. Perth has produced .9999 fine silver rounds in this format since the 1990s, and the program's longevity has created a secondary market almost entirely driven by Asian diaspora collectors rather than traditional numismatists.
