The obverse of 2010 2 oz Gold Australian Lunar Tiger Coins includes the effigy of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II. The longest-reigning British monarch features on this side of the coins in what is known as the fifth-generation Australian coin design boasting the monarch’s image. It was originally designed as the fourth-generation British coin effigy in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley and featured on Australian coins from 1998 to 2018.
On the reverse of 2010 Gold Australian Lunar Tiger Coins is a depiction of a tiger’s head. The largest predatory cat species in the world, the tiger is commonly found in northeastern China as part of the Siberian subspecies.
