Each 1 oz Scottsdale Lunar Year of the Rat Gold Bar in this product listing comes to you with a protective assay card. These CertiLock cards have tamper-evident construction so you can clearly and easily see if any attempts have been made to open the packaging before it arrives. The bars are all in brand-new condition.
The CertiLock packaging features the Scottsdale Mint name and lion logo on the obverse. On the reverse of the CertiLock assay card is a QR code with the weight, purity, and metal content of the bar included. The assay card also features a unique serial number.
The obverse of 1 oz Scottsdale Lunar Year of the Rat Gold Bar is available to you with the image of a rat below the branches of a tree. The design element includes the date mark for the Year of the Rat, as well as the Chinese symbol for a rat and an inscription of “Year of the Rat.”
On the reverse face of the 1 oz Scottsdale Lunar Year of the Rat Gold Bar is the combined logo for the Scottsdale Mint and Argor Heraeus, the producers of the lunar-themed Scottsdale bars. This logo includes the American flag and Swiss flag together in the center with the name of both mints in a circle around. Other inscriptions include the weight, purity, and metal content.
The rat arrived first at the meeting with the Jade Emperor with the use of a little bit of trickery. As he came across a raging river, the rat hitched a ride with the ox only to jump off just at the finish line to arrive first for the meeting. This is why the rat is the first in the 12-year cycle of the Zodiac.
