Everything Tiger, from Australia and Canada!

Tigers Redux. What more can we say?!?!
A few weeks ago we told you how g-r-r-r-reat tigers are, and we even quoted you poetry (thank God we went to class that day!). What else can we say? We've got nothing left in our literary and cultural bag of tricks (Crouching Tiger, er, no), but that doesn't mean we don't have more Tiger coins to show off! Not by a long shot.

Tiger FaceExcept to mention that the magnificent tiger is almost extinct in the wild. In fact, it is estimated there are more tigers in captivity in the United States alone than there are wild tiger in all of Asia.

So forget the pomp and circumstance, the flowery accolades, the clever pageantry, and let's get right to some exciting new coins!

A short summary of the different tigers we've got in captivity (and in this edition of the newsletter):
  1)  One Ounce Silver Tigers
  2)  Canadian Tigers
  3)  Inexpensive Gold Fractional Tigers
  4)  One Kilogram Silver Tigers
  5)  Limited Mintage, Proof Gold Tigers

The Tigers are selling very well, by the way. The One Ounce Silver Proof Tiger (mintage 5,000) has already sold out at the Mint, and several others are getting close after just a short time in release.

Australia One Ounce Silver Tigers

2010 Silver 1 Ounce Color TigerDebut of the Color One Ounce Tiger!
This could possibly be the most beautiful Chinese Lunar Zodiac coin produced by the Perth Mint yet! The Mint's execution of this intriguing animal motif in pure silver, artistically rendered in striking, vibrant hues really bring the subject to life!

Between the large size (45 mm, nearly 2 inches in diameter!), the low mintage (only 3,800 in case) & the beauty of the design, color and finish, we think you'll be impressed with this affordable, pure silver dollar!
Regular Price $79.95 - Special SALE Price Only $59.95 Each!

Australia 2010 Year of the Tiger $1
Standard Finish Tiger 1 Ounce!
Celebrate the coming Year of the Tiger! These large, impressive coins are a great value, and at nearly 2 inches across they certainly catch your eye!

Centuries ago, the Chinese invented a calendar based on the lunar (rather than the solar) cycle. There are twelve 
animals in the Chinese lunar zodiac, each corresponding in sequence to a year rather than a month. The 2010 Tiger is the third release in the Perth Mint's newest series of Lunar Zodiac coins.

Year of the Tiger Gold
Canada's Hologram Technology
While superior design, engraving and minting make any gold coin from the Royal Canadian Mint special, the Mint's proprietary hologram technology enhances this gold Tiger even more!

The image of the crouching tiger shimmers and scintillates as you tilt the coin from side to side, resulting in a wondrous rainbow of colors that make the scene come alive. We love the Mint's holograms on silver, but many have told us that they think that the hologram looks even better on gold.

The exquisite beauty of the hologram as it plays on the gold surface of the coin must truly be seen firsthand to be appreciated - a two-dimensional image just can't do it justice! Get this wondrous gold Tiger hologram at a below-issue, introductory price!
