Tuvalu's lunar series issues are struck by the Perth Mint under licensing arrangements that have made Australia the de facto producer of collectible coinage for several Pacific microstates since the 1990s. The "Year of the Goat" designation corresponds to the 4713th cycle year in the Chinese lunisolar calendar, which began February 19, 2015.
