Design & Craftsmanship

The reverse portrays a majestic goat standing proudly on a mountain plain, capturing the strength, determination and resilience associated with the Chinese Lunar Goat. Surrounding the goat are rugged natural landscapes, with a solitary tree visible in the distance, creating a striking and balanced composition. Also included in the design are the Chinese character for "Goat", the inscription "GOAT 2027", and The Perth Mint's iconic "P" mintmark.

The obverse features the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, together with the coin's weight, fineness and monetary denomination.

According to Chinese tradition, the goat travelled alongside the monkey and rooster in the Emperor's Great Race. Working together to overcome challenges, the trio crossed a wide river before the goat ultimately secured eighth place in the Chinese zodiac. Those born in 2027, 2015, 2003, 1991, 1979 and every twelfth preceding year are said to be gentle, creative and compassionate individuals. Known for their calm and thoughtful nature, they are often admired for their artistic talents, resilience and ability to bring harmony to those around them.
