The Bhutan 300 Ngultrum 1996 Year of the Pig Proof Silver Coin continues the nation’s exquisite Lunar Calendar series, celebrating the virtues of honesty, generosity, and prosperity embodied by the Pig. The obverse features a stylized, intricately patterned pig with decorative floral motifs, expressing abundance and good fortune. Surrounding the central design are all zodiac years associated with this sign: 1923, 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, and 2007. Below appear the inscriptions YEAR OF THE PIG and 300 NGULTRUM. The reverse presents Bhutan’s national emblem, where two dragons guard the sacred dorji (vajra) above a lotus blossom, symbolizing the harmony of spiritual and temporal power. The outer ring bears KINGDOM OF BHUTAN and the year 1996. Struck in proof silver, this coin unites timeless artistry with rich symbolism, making it a distinguished collectible for admirers of zodiac and Bhutanese culture.
