Golden Ox
In Chinese mythology the position of the animals
in the zodiac was decided by the Emperor’s Great
Race. Of the 12 creatures that took part, the mighty
ox finished second. Accordingly, it represents people
born in 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009 and 2021.
Stunning birthday gifts and heirlooms, these prestigious gold proof
coins depict a strapping ox amid bamboo, a symbol of virtue.
Like their pure silver counterparts, the coins are housed in presentation
packaging which includes an illustrated shipper on which the story of
the zodiac race unfolds in each year of the series.
