5 Dollars - Elizabeth II 4th Portrait - Year of the Monkey - Gold Bullion Coin

The Lunar Series II "Year of the Monkey" was struck for the 2016 Chinese New Year cycle, the ninth release in Perth Mint's second Lunar bullion program. The 1/20 oz gold format targets collectors who want genuine fine gold exposure without the premium barrier of a full-ounce piece — a deliberate market positioning that has made the small-denomination Lunar fractionals consistently the fastest to sell out across the series. Perth's .9999 fineness on these issues exceeds the .9990 standard common to many competing bullion programs.
