The Australian Mint produces three types of coins: "investment", "collectible" and "circulating". Collectibles are used to pay for purchases in stores, but in general they are produced for gifts and replenishment of collections. Money is distinguished by an unusual and high-quality image, different colors and finishes, which is unusual for "circulating" coins. " Investment" copies are produced in a small circulation, and the basis is silver and gold of the highest standard.
In 2004, silver Australian coins of the Lunar Series appeared - the first anniversary collection opened by a coin made of 0.9990 silver and weighing 500.5 grams depicting a monkey.
