A sheep to remember - 2015

The 2015 Year of the Goat 1 oz Silver Coin from The Royal Mint is actually officially titled the "Year of the Sheep" as part of its Shēngxiào Collection. While many other mints, such as the Perth Mint, used the "Goat" designation, the Royal Mint chose to feature two Yorkshire Swaledale sheep on the reverse to blend British and Chinese heritage

Forr the second year running, the Royal Mint released a special Limited Issue British Lunar Sheep £2 Two Pound Silver Proof Coin struck in solid fine .999 Silver weighing one ounce of fine pure Silver. I bought a Certified Slabbed and Graded by PCGS as PR70 DCAM for my son, who was born in that year as a keepsake.

It was the first graded coin i had ever bought, and thought id gift it to him on his 18th birthday(alon with the other million things hed probably expect to get)....
