In the Chinese Lunar Calendar, 2022 is the Year of the Tiger. Chinese astrology is based on a 12 years cycle, represented by twelve animals. The new issue of the Australian Lunar Series III of the Perth Mint is dedicated to the Year of the Tiger. The tiger is the third animal in the Chinese zodiac calendar. The third issue of the 12-year Lunar III Series features a tiger standing on a rock. The open jaw of the majestic animal reveals its impressive, razor-sharp teeth. The design also includes the Chinese character for "Tiger," the inscription "TIGER 2022" and the traditional mintmark "P" of the Perth Mint.
