| Additional information |
The Perth Mint's lunar series has run in two distinct cycles since 1996, and the Year of the Goat falls in the second — a series that doubled down on the two-ounce silver format to attract bullion stackers and collector crossovers simultaneously. The 2015 issue benefits from Perth's reputation for exceptionally clean .999 silver strikes, though the mint has never publicly disclosed its annual mintage caps with the consistency collectors would prefer.
