And you’ll definitely want to put this one in a location where it can be seen. The obverse design of the 2022 Silver Proof Macau Lunar Tiger Coin has a unique colorful look thanks to tile artwork inspired by the Portuguese culture of the Macau area. A tiger stalks across the coin, shown in orange and other colors instead of the normal mirrored or frosted device. Behind the tiger, line art in the coin depicts the jungle, and next to the image, inscriptions describing the location and face value are arranged to match the shape of the Macau Peninsula.
On the reverse of the coin is a detailed depiction of the facade of St. Lawrence’s Church. The church was built in the 1500s and is one of the three oldest churches in the area. The church and several other buildings in historic Macau have been designated as a protected historic site by UNESCO. The church, which was built in honor of St. Lawrence (a patron saint of navigation) is still in use today and is also called Feng Shun Tang. That means Church of Smooth-sailing Wind.
