The 4th Macau Lunar Coin Series (2020-2031) is issued by the Monetary Authority of Macau and exclusively minted by The Singapore Mint. The 4th Lunar Coin Series demonstrates the characteristics of Macau’s World Heritage Sites and showcases the unique blend of Macau’s Chinese and Portuguese culture through the tasteful design elements and innovative craftsmanship.

The obverse design of the coin features the majestic dragon, portrayed with vibrant display of teal coloured Portuguese-inspired patterned tiles. Embellishing the background are lotuses, the city flower of Macau, adding to the intricacy of the coin design. The accompanying texts are also thoughtfully arranged to resemble the Map of the Macau Peninsula.

The reverse design of the coin features the Church of St. Joseph’s Seminary, which is intricately minted with high relief minting technique. Renowned for its ornate Baroque style architecture, the church is characterised with a curved pediment which displays an elaborate Jesuit insignia in the center of the facade, with two symmetrical bell towers on both sides of the top floor. Presented from a bottom-up perspective, the presentation immerses collectors, guiding their view along the broad flight of stairs up the magnificent church.
