Design:
Canadian artist Aries Cheung has created a stylized depiction of an Ox charging towards its Chinese character situated on the left side of the design. Beneath the Ox's feet, dust swirls about like auspicious clouds, their swirling contours echoed in the Ox's flank to bestow good fortune upon thiszodiac sign. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.

• The Year of the Ox occurs every 12 years—1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009—and now, 2021. However, the Chinese New Year shifts annually due to the Spring Festival, and this affects the zodiac for peopleborn in January and February. For example, the Year of the Ox begins on February 12, 2021 and ends onJanuary 30, 2022.
• Famous Canadian Ox people include: Oscar Peterson, Jim Carrey,Marc Garneau, Michael J. Fox, Eric Lindros, Roch Carrier, Frank Mahovlich, Neve Campbell and Paul Coffy.
• Ox people are strong and robust. They generally enjoy a long, full life with few health issues.
• Ox people thrive in careers that demand a strong work ethic and determination to get things done. They perform well in manufacturing, mechanics, pharmaceuticals, draftsmanship, politics, real estate, carpentry, engineering and agriculture.
• The practical, hard-working Ox will forge the strongest relationships with the Snake and Rooster. It will have difficulty trusting the Monkey's scheming ways, and will find the Sheep's emotional sensitivity intolerable.
• Every Chinese zodiac rotates through the 5 elements (wood,fire, earth, metal, water). Metal Ox personalitiesborn in 2021 will have an iron will and nerves of steel. They are reserved, but will express themselves sharply and decisively when necessary.
