Comment

In 2007 the RAM launched an on-going series of Fine Silver (.999) NCLT Proof 25mm one dollar coins depicting each Lunar year and their representative animals. The series ran until 2018. The "Year of the Tiger" was the fourth coin in the series and was issued in a capsule in a plush square red box..
