The German artist Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528) was a great painter, but also an important engraver. One of his most famous works is the “Rhinoceros“ woodcut. Dürer used an Indian rhinoceros, which the Portuguese King Manuel I. received in 1515 as a gift from India, as his subject. This living Rhino caused a tremendous stir in the Court of Lisbon and far beyond. The exotic animal’s description, along with a rough sketch, reached Nuremberg by mail, and there it inspired Albrecht Dürer for his work – it should be noted that he had never seen such an animal himself.

A delightful numismatic celebration of the Year of the Ox, this highly original silver coin incorporates a fascinating embellishment in the form of a rotating charm representing the auspicious lunar animal itself! The release incorporates a gold-plated charm resembling an ox. Surrounded by artistic portrayals of oxen among floral motifs, the bead rotates on a pin which holds it securely in the middle of the coin. Featuring The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, the coin surface has been ‘antiqued’ to give it a unique finish conveying the surface abrasions of an ancient artefact.

The Butterfly
The Blue Nawab or Polyura schreiber is a butterfly which is mainly found in Singapore but also in other tropical areas in Asia. The colourful insect stands out with its eye catching pattern and a wingspan of up to 115 mm.
The green caterpillars are particularly remarkable. They weave a silk resting place on a few leaves of the plant they inhabit. This is where they rest during the day, in order to recover from their nightly feasting tours.
