| Reverse description | A Japanese macaque monkey is depicted seated upon a gnarled branch in high relief, its head turned forward with a naturalistic, detailed rendering of its fur. Above the monkey, a leafy branch bears a single round fruit, evoking traditional Chinese iconography associated with the Year of the Monkey. To the left of the central design, the Chinese character '猴' (monkey) is inscribed in bold relief, accompanied by the Perth Mint 'P' mint mark below it. The legend 'Year of the Monkey' curves along the lower periphery in elegant script lettering. The design is part of the Perth Mint's Lunar Series II, celebrating the Chinese zodiac. |
