In a stunning silver coin release to start 2020, the Perth Mint offers the animal depictions associated with rising and falling financial markets. The bear represents downtimes as selloffs reign on the market, while the bull represents a powerful upward run in markets as buyers take over and growth reigns supreme. Today, you have the chance to get 2020 Australian Bull and Bear 1 oz Silver Coins at Provident Metals.
Highlights:
Bull and bear markets represent financial markets moving in opposite directions. Like a bull in a China shop, the bull market runs wild in a positive direction with healthy buying and selling taking place as the markets expand and grow. Bear markets, on the other hand, are characterized by more selling than buying and broader market contraction.
Obverse
Queen Elizabeth II is depicted in right-profile relief on the obverse of 2020 Australian Bull and Bear 1 oz Silver Coins. Her Majesty is shown here with the George IV State Diadem Crown on her head in a portrait created by Jody Clark. This is the first portrait of Her Majesty since 1966 to include her neckline and shoulders in the effigy.
Reverse
Ing Ing Jongs design of a bull and a bear is found on the reverse of 2020 Australian Bull and Bear 1 oz Silver Coins. The design depicts the powerful bull on the left circling toward the massive bear as it roars on the right. There is a Perth Mint P mint mark on this side and a security feature engraved on this side as well. The security feature is not visible to the naked eye and provides greater authentication for the coins.
History
The use of the term bear associated with markets is older than that of the bull. Hunters and traders were encouraged not to sell the bears skin before it was killed, and when a massive market selloff in the South Sea occurred in 1720 the term became entrenched as people bemoaned the impact of bear-skin jabbers encouraging a selloff and taking advantage in the process.
