{{/presale}}PAMP Suisse offers its Lunar Calendar Series of silver and gold bullion bars with fresh designs for every date mark. These designs capture unique images of the 12 animals that appear in the cycle of the Chinese Lunar Calendar, starting with the Year of the Mouse and concluding with the Year of the Pig. The second animal to appear in each series is the ox. Provident Metals is pleased to offer 5 Gram Gold Lunar Ox Bars to you for purchase online.
Highlights:
When you purchase one of these 5 Gram Gold Lunar Ox Bars from Provident Metals, you will receive the gold bars inside of the original packaging from PAMP Suisse. The bars are housed in a capsule at the center of the blisterpack. Included inside of the pack is an individual assay card for that gold bar. It includes the date mark, name of the series, and weight, metal content, and purity for the bar. You will also find the unique serial number assigned to the bar on this card.
Obverse
An ox is shown in the obverse design of 5 Gram Gold Lunar Ox Bars. This ox, with its large horns and powerful frame, is shown stopping to take a drink of water from the pond. You will also notice the reflection of that same ox on the surface of the water. The only inscription on this face is between the large branches of the tree and it includes the Chinese symbol for an ox.
Reverse
You can see the same ox from the obverse in the reverse design element of the 5 Gram Gold Lunar Ox Bars. You can see that same tree on this side with a new inscription between the branches, that of the PAMP Suisse logo. You can see the ox from behind as it drinks, with an inscription on its body and the trunk of the tree that reads 5g Gold 999.9. Within the design element, you will find an image of a wooden cart wheel and a crate with gold coins inside. There is an inscription near the bottom of both the assayers mark and the unique serial number.
History
The ox is a valued animal species in Chinese culture. Revered for its strength and determination as a draft animal in agricultural societies, the ox is assigned positive characteristics such as being hardworking and honest.
