Description |
To welcome the arrival of the Year of the Ox, this Post has specially issued 1,500 pieces of the Auspicious Ox Pure Gold Ingot. Its theme derives from the design of the NT$13 stamp of the New Year’s Greeting Postage Stamps (Issue of 2020). Also issued are 500 sets of the collectable set, each including a pair of fine silver ingots and 1 piece each of the pure gold ingot and high relief copper medal. The exquisite engraving and the fine casting method of this ingot in a special limited-edition minting make it a highly collectable artifact with a commemorative meaning. |
