In Stock and Ready for Immediate Shipment!Long SOLD OUT at the Perth Mint! Celebrate the clever and ingenious Year of the Monkey in 2016 with this charming vignette of a mother and baby monkey enjoying peaches in a peach tree on this HIGH RELIEF, one troy ounce pure silver dollar piedfort (extra thick coin) with a very low mintage (only 7,500)! This unique, impressive coin represents a tremendous value, struck in pure silver! This beauty is made all the more desirable by the Mint’s execution of this intriguing animal motif in pure silver, artistically rendered in full proof finish! The fields are deeply mirrored, with the design accented in frosty white cameo relief, further enhancing an already handsome design. Even better, each silver dollar is struck in ultra high, medallic relief on a concave, extra-thick planchet (it is a piedfort) with a proof finish. Between the large size, the low mintage (only 7,500!), and the beauty of the design and high relief, we think you’ll be impressed with this affordable, pure silver dollar! The Perth Mint’s high relief silver dollars are always popular and desired; 2012’s Dragon High Relief Silver Dollar, 2013’s Snake High Relief Silver Proof and 2014’s Horse High Relief Silver Dollar sold out at the Mint almost instantly – don’t delay on this ever-popular issue! The Year of the Monkey—Clever and Ingenious! Centuries ago, the Chinese invented a calendar based on the lunar (rather than the solar) cycle. There are twelve animals in the Chinese lunar zodiac, each corresponding in sequence to a year rather than a month. Those born in the years 1908, 1920, 1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, and 2016 celebrate the Year of the Monkey. According to tradition, people born during a Year of the Monkey are said to exhibit that animal’s attributes. They are clever – they can be inventors, entertainers, anything generally creative and ingenious, and can be somewhat mischievous (although not spiteful). They are also considered great socializers, being very charming and persuasive. The Monkey is traditionally depicted in Chinese mythology with a peach. Why would this be so? The monkey is clever, and so he offers the peach fruit to ward off evil spirits and appease the ghosts of his forebears – thereby guaranteeing the protection of his ancestors and bringing him good fortune and luck! Monkeys are known for their intelligence and social ability, though they can be mischievous as well. Who doesn’t love to go to the zoo and watch the primates play – although sometimes it’s not perfectly clear whether we’re watching the monkeys or they’re watching us! Who can forget Bubbles the Chimp, whom Michael Jackson befriended. Bubbles must have been a particularly smart monkey, because Wacko Jacko claimed that Bubbles cleaned up his bedroom! Now that’s one clever simian! (Okay, chimpanzees are apes, and therefore technically not monkeys, but you get the point!) To quote the Rolling Stones in the song called (what else?) «Monkey Man», «I’m a monkey!» The year 2016 is ruled by one of the most popular and auspicious of all the lunar zodiac signs – the ingenious monkey, the Chinese lunar zodiac animal that most closely resembles humankind. The Monkey personality is supremely intelligent and charismatic, with boundless agility. He is highly social; the ultimate inventor, motivator and schemer. Even when you realize the Monkey has tricked you, your fondness and admiration for him will keep you from blowing your top. The Monkey is witty and charming; he will win your heart and keep it forever! The most intelligent sign in the Chinese lunar zodiac, those born in the Year of the Monkey are friendly and charming, and are able to use their brains instead of brawn to master a situation. This is the ninth annual release in the Lunar Zodiac Series II from Australia! An Ultra High Relief, Proof Silver Dollar! Once again, the Perth Mint has done the monkey proud! Each silver dollar is struck in ultra high relief, with a frosted cameo proof finish, and is a piedfort (extra-thick coin), measuring a substantial 6 mm thick! What is a Piedfort? Hard to find and popular with collectors for more than a century, piedforts are highly sought after. We get asked all the time, «What is a piedfort?» There are two different, but related, stories of the origin of the word «piedfort». The first says that it literally means «strong foot» in French (from pied, foot and fort, strong). The second says this word was appropriated by the mint centuries ago to mean «heavy measure» or «heavy weight». In both cases, the sense of serious heft to the coin is obvious. Often the word «piedfort» is translated as «double-thick», but this is neither a literal translation nor a precisely accurate definition. Numismatically speaking, any coin that is 50% or more thicker than a standard version qualifies as a piedfort, although some piedforts are, indeed, twice as thick as normal. Finally, the age-old question, «How is the word pronounced?» Coming from French, it is not pronounced as it is spelled; that is, don’t say, «pide – fort». Rather, «pee – ay – four» (three syllables) is a good approximation. Obverse A mother monkey with her baby enjoy a tasty snack while sitting in a peach tree. The legend YEAR OF THE MONKEY defines the theme. The Chinese character for «Monkey» is above the monkeys, while the Perth Mint’s «P» mint mark is judiciously placed to the left, near the 9:00 position along the rim. Reverse The reverse features Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, in crowned profile facing right. This portrait, featuring Her Majesty wearing a tiara and pearl earrings, was executed by the sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley. The legend 1 OZ 999 SILVER guarantees the weight and purity. The legend ELIZABETH II, the date and the denomination also appear. Packaging The coin is encapsulated inside an elegant, red and black presentation case lined with black velvet & satin and protected by a full color outer box. An individually-numbered certificate of authenticity is included.
