| Additional information |
Macao's lunar gold issues are struck by the Monetary Authority under the city's "One Country, Two Systems" arrangement, which grants it independent monetary authority distinct from the People's Bank of China — a status that shapes the entire commemorative program. The rabbit holds particular resonance in the Chinese zodiac cycle as associated with longevity and diplomacy, making it a consistent commercial draw for the series.
KM#198 corresponds to the 2023 issue in what is now a well-established annual series from Macao. Mintage figures for these pieces are typically kept low to sustain collector premiums.
