Those born under the sign of the Chinese lunar rabbit in 2023, 2011, 1999, 1987, 1975 and every 12th preceding year are said to be intelligent, creative, vigilant, and compassionate.

Issued as Australian legal tender, the uncirculated aluminium bronze coin is housed in a beautifully designed card with a circular window revealing the coin’s reverse and obverse designs.

The obverse of the coin depicts the Jody Clark effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the 2023 year-date and the monetary denomination.
