Silver Ounce 2022 Tiger - Panthera Tigris, Coin from Laos - detailed information
| ||||||
Laos (officially the Lao People's Democratic Republic) has been using the Lao Kip as its currency since 1955. In normal everyday circulation, it is normally served by banknotes and not coins. The country has however authorised some foreign mints to issue bullion coins under its jurisdiction. These are in standard bullion sizes, such as one ounce of silver - designated as 1 oz Ag, where Ag is abbreviated from Argentum, the Latin word for silver. This coin is the third release in the Tiger (Panthera Tigris) series of premium bullion coins, and is dedicated to the Indochinese tiger. The Indochinese tiger (Panthera tigris corbetti) is a tiger subspecies found in Myanmar, Thailand, Lao PDR, Vietnam, Cambodia and southwestern China. They prefer mostly forested habitats such as tropical rainforests, evergreen forests, deciduous forests, and tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests. | ||||||

APMEX individually seals each coin to ensure the authenticity and condition after being removed directly from the mint boxes. APMEX has partnered with PCGS, one of the most trusted names in numismatics, to further enhance the MintDirect Premier program. This partnership with PCGS allows MintDirect Premier with PCGS FirstStrike coins in their sealed packaging to remain eligible for the FirstStrike designation if submitted to PCGS for grading long after new FirstStrike-eligible coins are typically off the market. | |
