Minted and marketed by The Singapore Mint, the Macau Lunar Series is an award winning series which has clinched multiple international awards in the past few years.

The Monetary Authority of Macau proudly presents the Macau Lunar Pig Coin, the twelfth and last in this multi-award winning Macau Lunar Coin Collection (2008 – 2019), issued in conjunction with the arrival of the 2019 Year of the Pig (Boar).

The obverse side of the coin features a lively and robust pig accompanied by elegant blooms of hydrangeas. Round and in full bloom, hydrangeas portray abundance and prosperity as they are made up of a burst of smaller delicate flowers.

The reverse side features the Na Tcha Temple, which is located within the Historic Centre of Macau, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built in 1888, it is a Chinese traditional temple that worships the deity Na Tcha. The temple is located near the Ruins of St. Paul’s, presenting a mix of Western and Chinese ideals. It portrays the unique multicultural identity of Macau and its religious freedom.
