Coin Highlights:

Obverse
On the obverse of 2023 Proof Colorized Tuvalu Lunar Baby Rabbit Silver Coins, there is a bust of Queen Elizabeth II. Designed by Ian Rank-Broadley, this portrait captures the Queen in right-profile relief wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. You will also find inscriptions along the border that read QUEEN ELIZABETH II, 1/2 OZ .9999 AG 2023 TUVALU, 50 CENTS.
Reverse
The reverse of 2023 Colorized Tuvalu Lunar 1/2 oz Silver Coins contains a baby rabbit rendered in fully colorized detail. This contrasts beautifully with the mirror-like proof background. This heartwarming design is accompanied by the words YEAR OF THE RABBIT across the upper rim. Additional details include the Chinese rabbit symbol and the Perth mintmark.
History
The Chinese calendar is used in China to mark important events and holidays throughout the year. But the calendar also has a more global appeal, thanks in part to its inclusion of the Lunar animals. There are twelve animals in total that repeat in cycles. This means that 2023 is the first Rabbit year since 2011. The rabbit, which is preceded by the rat, ox, and tiger, is seen as the luckiest animal of the entire cycle.
