| Additional information |
The Perth Mint's lunar series has run continuously since 1996, making the Year of the Tiger the third time that animal has appeared in the sequence — the first in 1998, the second in 2010. Each twelve-year cycle restarts the zodiac, and collectors who began with the inaugural series now hold three generations of the same subject in differing designs.
The sixth portrait of Elizabeth II, by Jody Clark, was introduced in 2015 and remained in use until her death in September 2022 — meaning this coin sits near the very end of her effigy's production run on Australian bullion issues.
