Gilded Year of the Ram coins are now available! Images of Taiwan and Yushan are displayed next to a family of sheep.The 1 ounce coins are 99.9 percent pure silver and retail for NT$1,980. There were 60,000 made, more than in previous years.Lee Chi-chuTaiwan Bank ChairwomanI believe that these coins will significantly increase in value. China’s population is so large, and there are so many coin collectors there.
