When the three reached a wide, fast-flowing river, the goat calmly led the way across, reached the far bank first and took eighth place in the zodiac. People born in a Goat year (2027, 2015, 2003, 1991, 1979 and every 12 years before) are said to be gentle, creative and compassionate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNatasha Muhl's reverse shows a mature goat, a young goat and a kid grazing beneath a plum blossom tree. The scene illustrates the Chinese saying \u003cem\u003eThree Goats Bring Bliss\u003c\/em\u003e, a wish for the end of winter, the return of spring and prosperous new beginnings, while the plum blossom stands for purity, resilience and hope. The Chinese character for goat, 'GOAT 2027' and The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark are also included.
