According to Chinese culture, when five bats are depicted together it is said to be a visual representation of the Five Blessings which include longevity, wealth, health and composure, virtue, and the desire to die a natural death in old age.

A popular design often seen on Chinese charms is that of five bats surrounding the character for ‘fu’ meaning prosperity, together with a border of peach motifs, symbolising longevity and immortality, and peonies, representing royalty, virtue, wealth and honour.

Struck by The Perth Mint from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver, each coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965.

The Perth Mint will release no more than 10,000 of the 2016 Five Blessings 1oz Silver Bullion Coin. 

DESIGN

The reverse of the coin features five bats surrounding the Chinese character for ‘fu’, together with a mix of peonies and peach motifs. The design also features the inscription FIVE BLESSINGS and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.

The Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the monetary denomination, and the 2016 year-date are shown on the coin’s obverse.
