| Additional information |
The Perth Mint's lunar series has run continuously since 1996, making the 2022 Tiger issue part of the third full cycle through the twelve-year calendar — the first Lunar Series III Tiger. Each restart of the cycle brings updated portraiture and refined design work, but the .9999 fineness has been a constant since the series launched, placing it among the purest mass-produced bullion programs anywhere.
The sixth portrait of Elizabeth II, by Jody Clark, was introduced across Australian coinage in 2019 and would prove to be the final official effigy before her death in September 2022.
