Designed by the artistic geniuses at the Perth Mint, this half-ounce gold piece captures the essence of the loyal canine, with intricate details that pay homage to the breed's formidable presence. Engraved with cultural significance, this coin serves not only as an investment in gold but also in heritage. The reverse of this striking bullion piece illustrates a stylistic rendition of a dog amidst Chinese peonies, symbolizing harmony and prosperity. This attention to detail and symbolism enhances its allure, casting it as both a collectible art form and a financial asset.

Composed exclusively of .9999 fine gold, this edition of the Lunar Series maintains the high standards that the Perth Mint prides itself on.

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!!
