The 2027 $1 Year of the Goat Uncirculated Two-Coin Set marks the eighth year in the twelve-year Chinese zodiac cycle with two new reverse designs from the Royal Australian Mint, presented in outer packaging inspired by traditional Chinese red packets, a set that suits both dedicated Lunar collectors and gift-giving.

According to legend, twelve animals raced across a river to determine the order of the zodiac. The Goat placed eighth, having worked with the Monkey and the Rooster to cross together on a raft.

Those born under the Goat sign are traditionally considered creative and compassionate. International Goats include Bill Gates, Carlos Alcaraz, Norah Jones and Ed Sheeran; well-known Australian Goats include Nicole Kidman and Tina Arena.

The 2027 $1 Year Of The Goat Uncirculated Two-Coin Set is available in Australia from Direct Coins. Leading authorised distributor for the Royal Australian Mint since 2012.
