Coin Highlights:
Every purchase of the 2022 Chinese Calendar 2 oz Silver Coin includes a stunning presentation box, making this ideal for home display. The Mint of Poland has also issued a Certificate of Authenticity for each coin. Because the mint only produced 600 of these masterfully designed specimens, they will not be available for long!
Obverse
Queen Elizabeth II is featured on the obverse of 2022 Antique Niue Chinese Calendar 2 oz Silver Coins. This portrait of the Queen was designed by British Sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley, who won a competition by the Royal Mint for a new effigy of Her Majesty. This portrait depicts the Queen in right-profile relief wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. The field includes inscriptions of ELIZABETH II, NIUE ISLAND, 2 DOLLARS, .999 and 2022.
Reverse
In the reverse design of the 2022 Antique Niue Chinese Calendar 2 oz Silver Coin, we see a ring of circles with exquisite details in each. The inner circle features the symbol of balance, Yin and Yang. The next two circles depict carefully detailed Chinese zodiac symbols. The second of these circles is presented with stunning red imagery, which really makes the coin stand out. The outer ring features the 12 animals that correspond to the zodiac signs.
History
While most people in China use the Gregorian calendar for daily life, the Chinese Calendar is still employed for festivals and other important days. The calendar is based on highly accurate observations of the moons phases and the suns longitude. As such, the calendar maintains
significant scientific backing. The calendar is made up of zodiac symbols and animals that rotate every 12 years. For many, this calendar determines things like good luck and when special events in a persons life will occur. Just like the Western Zodiac signs, the Chinese Calendar intrigues astrology enthusiasts to this day!
