Perth Mint Lunar Series Gold Snakes Completely Sold Out
Overview
The 2001 one-ounce Gold Snakes, part of The Perth Mint Lunar Series, has reached its production cap of 30,000 coins, marking it as the third coin in the series to do so. With many analysts predicting a rise in precious metal prices, these coins could see significant appreciation.
Background
The Perth Mint Lunar Series draws inspiration from the Chinese 12-year Lunar Calendar, which dates back to 2600 BC. Each year is represented by an animal and governed by five elements?"wood, fire, earth, metal, and water?"which cycle every sixty years. This unique theme captivates collectors worldwide.
Launch and Appeal
Introduced in 1996 with the Year of the Rat, the Lunar Series targets coin collectors but is sold at bullion prices. Known for their exquisite quality, these coins are among the most beautiful bullion items available.
The one-ounce versions are particularly popular, appealing to both collectors and investors. Their convenience for storage and higher desirability enhance their value compared to fractional coins.
Production Cap Benefits
The 30,000-coin production limit boosts the series' allure. Unlike the unlimited production of the U.S. Mint's Gold Eagles, these coins achieve collector status quickly. The Gold Snakes, along with the previously capped Dragons and Horses, are already highly sought after.
Investment Potential
These coins present a unique opportunity to purchase bullion at collector's prices, offering potential profits from gold price increases and collector premiums. Their beauty often turns investors into dedicated collectors.
Rising Interest
Interest in the Lunar Series is boosted by the upcoming 2008 Beijing Olympics, as global attention on China introduces more people to the Lunar Calendar. Promotional items, including these coins, are gaining traction.
Market Impact
Historically, collector coins have surged in price during precious metals bull markets. If this trend continues, the one-ounce Lunar Series coins could become even more valuable.
In summary, the Perth Mint's Gold Snakes and other Lunar Series coins combine stunning craftsmanship, cultural significance, and financial potential, making them a prized addition for both investors and collectors.
