🏅 COIN DETAILS

🌟 WHY PCGS MS70 FIRST DAY OF ISSUE?

MS70 is a perfect coin — absolutely zero post-production imperfections visible under magnification. The additional First Day of Issue designation is among the most prestigious labels in modern numismatics, confirming this coin was received by PCGS on the very first day of its official release. Together, MS70 + First Day of Issue represents the absolute pinnacle of certification for this issue and commands a significant premium over standard certified examples. PCGS coins are individually inspected, encapsulated in a tamper-evident holder, and carry a certification number verifiable on the PCGS registry.

💎 WHY PLATINUM?

Platinum is one of the rarest precious metals on earth — significantly rarer than gold or silver. The Perth Mint's platinum Lunar issues are produced in extremely limited quantities compared to their gold and silver counterparts, making certified examples genuinely scarce. Platinum Lunar coins attract both precious metals investors and numismatic collectors, creating demand from two distinct buyer pools. A PCGS MS70 First Day of Issue example represents the very top tier of an already rare issue.

🐂 ABOUT THE 2021 LUNAR OX

The 2021 Perth Mint Lunar Ox celebrates the Year of the Ox in the prestigious Lunar Series III — one of the most collected and respected coin series produced by any mint in the world. The design features a magnificently rendered ox standing proud among bamboo, with the Chinese character 牛 (ox) and "OX 2021" inscription flanking the central figure. The Perth Mint's world-renowned artisans have captured the strength and dignity of the ox with exceptional relief and detail, all rendered in lustrous .9995 fine platinum.

In Chinese culture, the Ox is a symbol of diligence, strength, and dependability — among the most auspicious of the twelve zodiac animals. Those born in the Year of the Ox (1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009, 2021) hold this coin in particularly special regard.
