Lucky
Cats Bring Health, Wealth, and Charm!
 Cat
lovers rejoice over your good fortune! The Lucky Waving Cat (known as
Maneki Neko) is an icon
of Japanese culture, and brings good fortune in the form of health,
wealth, prosperity and success.Different color cats have different powers associated with them, as you can see in the 3-coin set! The orange cat is the "wealthy" cat, and even carries a gold coin (known as a koban) to symbolize wealth and prosperity. The koban was a Japanese oval gold coin from the Edo feudal period (1603-1867). The legend of the Maneki Neko holds that the Lucky Cat's koban coin is worth ten million ryo! The other cats are Healthy Cat (with green markings), said to promote good health and camaraderie, and Charming Cat (purple), which is said to promote charisma and attract friends.  3-Coin

special gift! And who knows, these kitties might help you win the lottery!
  Say
Hello to the Lucky Wealthy Cat!The Maneki Neko (literally "Beckoning Cat") depicts
a Japanese Bobtail cat, one paw upraised to attract money, and the
other paw protecting it. He even carries his own lucky gold koban coin,
making this a coin-on-coin design!

Third in New
Series
"Working Dogs"
Talisman
Coins and the Perth Mint are excited to announce the third release in
the exciting new Working Dogs series! This extremely low mintage series
(only 3,000 per
breed!)
celebrates five different dogs and the very different jobs they
accomplish at our behest! Each proof-finish coin features a full color
picture of an adult working dog and a puppy.The Australian Cattle Dog  The
Australian Cattle Dog (often abbreviated ACD) is a breed of herding dog
originally developed in Australia for droving cattle over long
distances across rough terrain. Today it is a versatile breed: a
courageous and tireless worker, an intelligent and athletic companion
and a loving and playful family pet. They tend to nip heels to herd
people, and they can be aggressive with other dogs. However they are
loyal and obedient, and respond well to training.The Australian Cattle Dog is a medium-sized, short-coated dog that occurs in two main colorations. The dogs have either brown or black hair distributed fairly evenly through a white coat, which gives the appearance of being either red or blue dogs. They have been nicknamed “Red Heelers” and “Blue Heelers” on the basis of this coloring and their practice of moving reluctant cattle by nipping at their heels. The Australian Cattle Dog is the third in this new and exciting series, to be released by the Perth Mint. Coins commemorating the following canines are planned: Labrador Retriever - Guide Dog Border Collie - Sheep Dog Australian Cattle Dog - Herding Dog Beagle - Detection (Sniffer) Dog German Shepherd - Police Dog With a mintage of only 3,000, the Cattle Dog has already sold out at the Mint! We recommend IMMEDIATE ACTION to get this coin while you can!

Love Forever - Pair of Doves - Eternal Romance

centuries, across many cultures, the dove has been a symbol of love and
purity. The dove is often depicted with Aphrodite and Venus, the Greek

token of affection, the dove represents a promise of fidelity and
loyalty. White doves are often released at weddings, to symbolize love,
beauty and hope for the loving couple. We're proud to bring you this
elegant yet affordable, pure silver proof with color, struck in Western
Australia by the precious metal experts at the Perth Mint.
Retail

this stunning silver proof also makes a perfect wedding gift, or as the
most unique anniversary gift the happy couple will ever receive! |

RMC Duntroon Silver Dollar & Badge Set
|
||
A Centenary of Officer Training!
Commemorate the centennial of Duntroon, the Royal Military College of Australia responsible for training cadets for service as officers in the Australian Army. This design depicts an army officer in dress uniform and holding a saber (in silhouette) facing three roles: an officer in the field, a commander and a father and family man.  A
colored version of the RMC badge with its legend DOCTRINA VIM PROMOVET
(Latin for "Education promotes strength") is also incorporated into the
coin's design. This full proof silver dollar with a very limited
mintage has fields that are deeply mirrored, with the design struck in
frosty white cameo relief, further enhancing the coin's already
handsome design (which is even nicer looking in person than the
mint-supplied images suggest). This set also includes a replica of the
RMC Duntroon badge, struck in copper and plated in 24-karat gold! (Notice the two boomerangs in the center!) The
Royal Military College, Duntroon is the Australian Army's officer
training establishment. It was founded at Duntroon, in the Australian
Capital Territory (ACT), in 1911 and is situated on picturesque grounds
at the foot of Mount Pleasant near Lake Burley Griffin, close to the
Department of Defense headquarters at Russell Hill. Over the years,
Duntroon has established a rich history. Graduates have led Australian
soldiers in every major military campaign in which Australia has been
engaged. Recognized as one of the world’s leading military
colleges, it proudly upholds a famous tradition of training and
developing some of the country’s most accomplished leaders. |
