Gold Quarter Ounce 2023 Year of the Rabbit, Coin from Bhutan - detailed information

The Kingdom of Bhutan has used the Ngultrum (དངུལ་ཀྲམ) as its currency since 1974. Apart from its regular circulating coinage, the Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan has also authorised some foreign mints to issue coins under its jurisdiction, which come in a variety of sizes - including in the internationally popular quarter ounce (1/4 oz) of gold format, denominated usually as 1,000 Ngultrum. These coins are considered Non-Circulating Legal Tender (NCLT) and not bullion, because they are released at prices significantly higher than the intrinsic (bullion) value of their precious metal content.

The mint says about this coin:
2023 marks the commencement of a new lunar almanac cycle with the Year of the Rabbit. The Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan proudly issues the Happiest Lunar Coin Series - 2023 Bhutan Lunar Rabbit coins, exclusively minted and marketed by The Singapore Mint. This new launch is the eighth coin issue of the Bhutan Lunar and Attraction series (2016 - 2027).

The blissful rabbit, adorned with big cloud swirls and leaves depicting the rabbit’s joyous adventures in Bhutan’s vast plains and forests, shares its blessings of good fortune with everyone.
