Part of Perth Mint's long-running Lunar Series II, which launched in 2008 to complete a full 12-year zodiac cycle ending in 2019. The Rooster is the tenth animal in that sequence. Pad printing — a process borrowed from industrial product decoration — was adopted by Perth Mint to achieve flat, opaque color on silver that conventional enamel or lacquer techniques couldn't reliably replicate at this scale. Mintage on colored variants in this series runs consistently lower than their uncolored counterparts, as the additional production step introduces rejection rates that suppress final certified outputs.
