Three goats graze together, mature, young and newborn, beneath a plum blossom tree. The scene renders the phrase Three Goats Bring Bliss, which marks the end of winter and the start of spring: renewal, and beginnings that go well. The plum blossom, which flowers while the cold still holds, stands for purity and resilience. The design also carries the Chinese character for Goat, the inscription GOAT 2027, and The Perth Mint's P mintmark.

The Goat took eighth place in the emperor's race that fixed the order of the lunar calendar, crossing the river ahead of the monkey and the rooster after the three built a raft between them.

Those born in 2027, 2015, 2003, 1991, 1979 and every twelfth preceding year fall under the sign, associated with calm, artistry and a thoughtful way of moving through the world.

The 2027 Year Of The Goat Silver Proof Three-Coin Set is available in Australia from Direct Coins. Leading authorised distributor for The Perth Mint since 2012.
