Posted in another forum several days ago. Perhaps discussions in this forum may deal more with lunar coins from foreign mints. Hi forum members, A recent visitor to our site asked. Is the 1979 Macau silver (Series I) Goat commemorative coin the First silver issued to represent the Chinese lunar calendar coins? I take it he means of Chinese, Perth Mint, Royal Mint, Canadian Mint lunar Series minted and others.... I would respectfully ask this learned forum if they know if the 79' Macau Silver Goat was actually first silver issue or were others issued before. Always appreciated your knowledge and insight. Thanks for any info and Happy Holidays to all! Regards, John Coinsasia.net [email protected]
