| Reverse description | A stylised pastoral scene depicts a family of three goats — a billy, a nanny, and a kid — rendered in fine detail against a decorative rural background. The Chinese character for 'goat' (羊) appears prominently within the design alongside the English inscription YEAR OF THE GOAT, celebrating the Chinese Lunar New Year. The Perth Mint's traditional 'P' mintmark is present in the design. The overall composition reflects the artistic conventions of the Perth Mint's celebrated Lunar Series II coinage. |
