Another new limited mintage bullion coin from APMEX is now available and it’s the second in the pretty Panthera Tigris series of Tiger coins issued for Laos. Debuting last year with a Tiger emerging from the undergrowth, there’s a closer view of this magnificent animal for 2021. With its ears drawn back and fangs bared, this animal looks just about ready to create some serious blood-letting. It’s a good looking piece with the inscriptions in a border that’s very well integrated into the main design.

Issued for Laos, their national bank building is emblazoned across the obverse. An unusual choice, we’re fortunate that it’s a nice piece of local-style architecture. There are two formats in the range, both tipping the scales at an ounce in weight. The 0.999 silver variant has a mintage of 10,000 pieces and comes encapsulated. The 0.999 gold coin, also with a brilliant uncirculated finish, comes in a box with a Certificate of Authenticity, and has a tiny mintage of just 100 pieces. An APMEXclusive, it’s available now.
