Silver Ounce (x4) 2023 Year of the Rabbit Quadrant, Coin from Tuvalu - detailed information
| ||||||
The Tuvaluan Dollar is the currency of Tuvalu - a small nation in the Pacific Ocean. Tuvalu has never had banknotes of its own, and has been issuing coins since 1976; these circulate together with coins of the Australian Dollar, which is also legal tender in the country, and to which the Tuvaluan Dollar is pegged. The Australian Perth Mint issues a large variety of non-circulating legal tender coins under the authority of Tuvalu. Some of these are in the silver ounce format (abbreviated as 1 oz). Strictly speaking, they are not bullion as they are priced at a premium and are targeted at collectors who appreciate them for their artistic merit and collectable value and not just for their precious metal content. This is actually a set of four separate one-ounce coloured silver coins which come together into a shape termed by the Perth Mint a "quadrant" - round, with a square hole in the middle in the manner of old Chinese coins. Given that these are distributed together and not supposed to be separated, they are described together on this page. The Mint says about it: The coloured artistry of each contemporary coin seamlessly blends to create a harmonious and pleasing panorama featuring rabbits in a countryside setting. The top coin depicts two rabbits bounding under cherry blossom; the right-hand coin depicts an upright rabbit among cabbages and sunflowers; the bottom coin depicts a doe and two kittens near their burrow with daisies and a cabbage; the left-hand coin depicts a rabbit crouching among nasturtiums and daisies. | ||||||
