| Additional information |
The Perth Mint's lunar series tied to the Chinese zodiac calendar was designed explicitly to capture demand from Southeast Asian and diaspora markets, where gifting gold on zodiac-year occasions carries genuine cultural weight. The 2010 Tiger issue falls in the second iteration of Perth's lunar program — the Lunar Series II — which began in 2008 and ran through 2019, each year re-engaging buyers who had committed to the full twelve-coin run.
At 1/20 troy ounce, this is the smallest denomination in the Tiger release's weight ladder, which extended up to one kilogram.
