PERTH MINT ANNOUNCES ‘CUT OFF’ FOR AUSTRALIAN LUNAR BULLION COIN SERIES I

Time is running out if you wish to acquire coins from the Australian Lunar Gold and Silver Bullion Coin Series I.

The Perth Mint, which issues the Australian Government’s official bullion coin program, has announced the cut off date of the 31 August 2007 for all orders of these superb gold and silver Australian legal tender releases.

Struck from 99.99% pure gold and 99.9% pure silver, Australian Lunar bullion coins offer investors worldwide a trusted and convenient way of adding precious metals to their portfolios.

Bearing designs inspired by the ancient Chinese Lunar Calendar, the Series portrays 12 animals said to have a profound effect on the people born under their influence. The stunning artistry on the coins has made the coins extremely popular with collectors too.

With such a short window of opportunity remaining, investors and collectors wishing to acquire Australian Lunar coins celebrating the Years of the Mouse, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig should act immediately.

Once the cut off date of 31 August has been reached, no further orders will be accepted by The Perth Mint.
