2021 $150 Year of the Ox Gold Coin

According to the Chinese zodiac, 2021 is the year of the ox. Struck with a proof finish in 11.84 grams of 18-karat gold, this coin features a design by Canadian artist Aries Cheung, with a stylized depiction of an ox charging towards its Chinese character. Beneath the ox's feet, dust swirls about like auspicious clouds, their swirling contours echoed in the ox's flank to bestow good fortune upon this zodiac sign. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.

The common expression "strong as an ox" isn't just about physical strength; it also refers to the ox's mental fortitude. No matter how difficult a task may be, the ox personality keeps going. While other zodiacs may rely on wit and cunning, the ox achieves its goals through sheer tenacity and dedication. Its patience is legendary, but the quiet and introverted ox will buck injustice to take command if pushed too far. The ox is a fair-minded powerhouse that will honour you with an unwavering bond. People born in 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009 and 2021 are born in the year of the ox.
