| Reverse description | A boldly rendered tiger in dynamic stance, positioned atop a rocky peak with its jaws open, exposing prominent canine teeth in an expression of power and ferocity. The Chinese character 虎 (tiger) appears to the left of the central device, while the inscription TIGER and the date 2022 are placed below the principal motif. The Perth Mint's P mintmark appears to the left of these inscriptions, and the designer's initials MR, for Monique Reeves, are located below the tiger's right hind leg. The design celebrates the Chinese Lunar New Year of the Tiger and is executed in high relief with fine surface detail throughout the field. |
