A design by Natasha Muhl
The Perth Mint describes a mature goat, a young goat and a baby goat.
The year’s gold coin bears a different image, designed by Wade Robinson: a single goat on a mountain plain.
The image draws on the phrase “Three Goats Bring Bliss”, which according to The Perth Mint stands for the end of winter and the arrival of spring.
The character 羊
At the top centre are the Chinese character for goat and GOAT 2027, on the left the P of The Perth Mint.
The Year of the Goat begins on 6 February 2027.

The series
One animal a year since 1996
In 1996 The Perth Mint became the first mint to release an Australian lunar programme, as it states. Each series follows the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac: Lunar I from 1996 to 2007, Lunar II from 2008 to 2019, Lunar III from 2020 to 2031.
Each year one animal is added, and the snake, the horse and the goat each have separate designs for gold and silver. The snake is the sixth animal of Lunar III, the horse the seventh, the goat the eighth.
Since the snake of 2025, the effigy side has shown King Charles III, portrayed by Dan Thorne.

The mint
The P of Perth
The Perth Mint was founded in a gold rush. In 1892 a find near Coolgardie set off Australia’s second great gold rush of the 19th century. Premier Sir John Forrest did not want the gold to leave Western Australia for processing and secured a branch of the Royal Mint in Perth.
On 20 June 1899 the first gold was processed and struck there, and The Perth Mint has operated continuously on the same site in East Perth ever since. The sovereigns from Perth carried a small P above the date.
The designs of the snake, the horse and the goat also bear a P, as The Perth Mint’s mintmark. Today it is owned by the State of Western Australia.
The finish
Three coins in one case
The set brings together three coins with the year’s silver design in a single case.
The three coins of 1 ounce each show the design in three ways: coloured, gilded and plain.

This set combines three 1-ounce coins from the Perth Mint's Lunar Series III – all three dedicated to the Year of the Goat 2027, all three made of 99.99% pure fine silver. The twist: one design, three completely different finishes. One coin shines in Proof quality, a second features fine color finishing, and the third has partial gilding. Anyone collecting Silver Lunar coins gets in one go what would otherwise only be painstakingly assembled piece by piece.
The Design: "Three Goats Bring Bliss"
The reverse depicts three generations – a fully grown animal, a younger goat and a kid – peacefully set in a mountain landscape by the water. Behind them, a blossoming plum tree unfurls, a symbol in China for purity, resilience and hope. The composition draws on the auspicious phrase "Three Goats Bring Bliss": the end of winter, the arrival of spring, a new beginning. The image was designed by Natasha Muhl; the traditional "P" mint mark of the Perth Mint sits to the left of the design. The goat is the eighth animal in the Chinese zodiac calendar and is regarded as gentle, creative and compassionate. On the obverse, the Perth Mint features the portrait of King Charles III created by Dan Thorne, flanked by the weight and fineness details as well as the face value of 1 AUD per coin – 3 AUD for the complete set.

Why the Limitation Makes the Difference
Individual Lunar issues are released in significantly higher quantities. This trio, by contrast, is limited to just 1,500 pieces – a genuine rarity in the segment of Australian silver coins. Experience shows that such sets are gradually broken up over the years, resold individually, or incorporated into collections; complete, originally packaged specimens therefore become noticeably scarcer over time. This is precisely where the appeal lies compared with classic bullion issues such as the single 1-oz Lunar coin or a Kookaburra: the trio offers less mass, but considerably more craftsmanship, finishing and rarity. To be fair, there is a downside – the collector premium is higher than that of a pure bullion coin. In return, you receive minting artistry that cannot simply be purchased again later.
Silver: A Collector's Metal with a Solid Core
For thousands of years, silver has served as coinage metal, a medium of trade, and a symbol of wealth and prestige – and it continues to be traded worldwide as a commodity today. Its industrial demand in electronics, solar and medical technology meets a naturally limited supply. Physical silver is durable, retains its properties over generations, and can always be readily resold. Many buyers value it as an inflation hedge and as crisis protection – however, with this set, the collector's value is clearly in the foreground. A tax note on the side: profits from the sale of physical silver are generally tax-free in Germany, provided the minimum holding period of one year is observed.
One design, three finishes, 1,500 sets worldwide: this Lunar III trio is minting artistry you can hold in your hand – and a tangible asset that passes down from generation to generation.
Whether as an entry point into the Lunar Series III, as an addition to an existing zodiac collection, or as an extraordinary gift for the Year of the Goat: this set is one of those issues you secure early – because the Perth Mint will not be minting any more.
