| Additional information |
Mongolia's lunar series coins of this period were struck by foreign minting houses — almost certainly the Bern-based Swissmint or a comparable European contractor — as the Mongolian mint lacked the capacity for fine gold production at this specification. The 1/25 oz sizing places it squarely in the collectible bullion-gift category that surged across Asian markets in the mid-2000s, driven largely by Chinese New Year demand for gold zodiac pieces from issuers with nominal sovereign backing.
