Not that I have ever looked, but I was surprised to see that the S1 Ox and Tiger weren't even made in 1/2 oz

adze, I know you would have mentioned it but just in case, do the S1 1/2oz coins come with the red Perth Mint display boxes at all?

 

Another adze auction of deliciousness, with the usual suspects fighting over them like seagulls over a chicken wing....

And neither was the Rat/Mouse They had to play catch-up with the Silver Series as it started 3 years after the Gold Lunars (i.e the Rabbit was the first in the Series in Silver) so at the end of the Series they minted both Series 1 and Series II for the 1oz/2oz & 1kg but not the 1/2oz, 5oz or 10oz...
