2015 Plenty Year of the Goat - Niue Island

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Here is an interesting new Year of the Goat coin (if you could call it that) being released. I spotted it on site MOWOCO (short for Modern World Coins). It appears to be a new series (at least I don’t recall seeing a similar horse design last year). 
It is minted from sterling Silver, weighing 28.28 grams and has a mintage of 5,000. Proof quality and with a face value of $1.
The pre-order price is listed as Rs 8,500 (roughly AUD $150) and rising to Rs 10,000 (A$175) once they close.

Description on the site says:
The Chinese zodiac is a twelve-year cycle in which each year is associated with a specific animal. Those born during the year of a certain animal were thought to share some of the qualities of that animal. The twelve animals in order are: rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, ram, monkey, rooster, dog, pig.2015 is the year of the goat. Reverse: On the coin with the irregular shape a head of a goat with gold printed horn. Inscription: “PLENTY YEAR OF THE GOAT”. Obverse: Effigy of Elizabeth II, inscriptions: “Elizabeth II”, “Niue Island”, “2015”, hallmark “Ag 925”and 1 dollar”. In the centre of the coin a horn of plenty filled with different fruits.

Images of the coin are below:

Also, just a quick follow up on the previously covered ‘Tokelau 2015 Lunar Goat 1oz Silver Coins’, I spotted this YouTube clip in the wild, which may interest some readers… it’s probably one of the first videso (if not THE first) of real life 2015 Lunar Goat coins.
