Rugged Tiger Design Powerfully Roars Into 2022
This set’s silver 10 Yuan coin was struck in 30 grams of highly pure 99.9% fine silver, while the 200 Yuan gold coin was struck in 15 grams of 99.9% pure gold. These coins evoke a fluid tranquil motion with their curved blossom shape. The silver coin depicts a stylized version of a determined and confident tiger, its body crouched as if about to spring into action. The gold coin’s design takes a much milder approach to with a playful depiction of a stylized tiger cub resting on its belly. The common obverse of each coin shows China’s national emblem, year date, and the words “People’s Republic of China” in Mandarin Chinese.
The designs are gorgeous, as one would expect from the world-renowned China Mint.
