These magnificent coins represent more than an investment opportunity. They also make ideal gifts for friends or family, a Chinese New Year gift for business associates, or a present for anyone born in the year of the dog – 1922, 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, and 2006.

Beautiful designs and limited mintages mean these bullion coins are also sought by collectors, giving them potential for numismatic appreciation over time.

The year of the dog runs from January 29, 2006 to February 17, 2007. The Chinese believe the animal ruling the year in which a person is born has a profound influence on their personality. Dogs are regarded as loyal, trustworthy, honest, and ethical.

All coins in this series are issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965.
