Elegantly designed, this gold piece showcases a beautifully detailed German Shepherd standing proudly on the reverse. The design, by Ing Ing Jong, exudes a dynamic spirit and captures the essence of intelligence and protection, key traits of the year this collection celebrates. Accompanied by flora that provides a balanced aesthetic, each element contributes to a composition that tells a story of heritage and art. The obverse features the customary effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, which alongside the intricate reverse motif, speaks to the coin’s authenticity and its meticulous craftsmanship.

Created with a purity of .9999 fine gold, this investment-grade piece not only embodies significant cultural symbolism but also represents a powerhouse of intrinsic value. The Perth Mint, historically acclaimed for its superior minting quality, upholds a tradition of excellence in the production of this coin, ensuring a Brilliant Uncirculated finish that highlights its artistic detail and lustrous quality. The coin’s consistency in gold content and quality is a testament to its mint’s prestigious standing and commitment to perfection.

Gold has long been revered for its enduring value and historical significance. As a precious metal with a storied past and a pivotal role in global economies, it remains a timeless asset. Investors and collectors have long recognized the unique dual appeal this offers—both as a significant financial instrument and as an item with aesthetic and cultural resonance. The Australian Gold Lunar collection is particularly beloved for marrying these aspects, making it a mainstay in portfolios and collections worldwide.

Gold bullion like this offers a rare opportunity to own a tangible piece of cultural history. The Year of the Dog edition is especially sought after for its limited mintage and the brief annual production window that ensures its scarcity. This adds yet another layer of distinction to an already impressive piece, appealing to both seasoned collectors and those newcomers eager to start with a coveted series.

Consider adding this highly valuable gold piece to your portfolio as a long-lasting investment or to your collection as a captivatingly detailed artifact. As a legacy item, it holds the promise of both beauty and wealth for generations to come. For inquiries or assistance, we welcome you to reach out to our dedicated team at Bullion Standard.

Bullion Standard out of all the companies I researched offer the best spots and prices. My only complaint is I wish I had found this company a long time ago as it would have saved me a lot of money. They offer a wide selection for all your bullion needs. Items are packed with great care and shipping is fast. I highly recommend Bullion Standard for all your bullion needs and quit getting ripped offer by the " big guys" . I also recommend enrollment in Pro for the awesome extra savings on your purchases.

I am a great fan of Bullion Standard and have highly recommend this company for the spots and prices of all items. All items were well packed and shipping was quick. I had one issue with processing a purchase online and have been helped by customer service. Another time I paid the higher price since purchase was after hours...my lack of patience sometimes. All items I have purchased had the best prices out of dozens of companies I researched. I could not be more pleased even with a couple of bumps along the road. The quality, quantity and selection is great though if I had one request is that you offered 5 oz silver bars!!
