Product Description
DRAGON – 2020 2 oz SILVER COLORED ANTIQUED COIN – TUVALU – PERTH MINT
In Chinese culture, the dragon is revered as a divine mythical creature embodying wealth, power and good fortune.
Dragons are frequently depicted in pursuit of a flaming pearl, a metaphor for wisdom and enlightenment. To represent the elusive nature of these qualities the lustrous gem is often illustrated swirling through mist or clouds. Dragons are traditionally shown with their mouths open and their eyes wide as they endeavour to capture the eternal treasure.
DESIGN
The coin’s reverse depicts a coloured dragon with its serpentine body twisted in the shape of a figure eight, an auspicious number in China. The legendary creature is surrounded by clouds and is chasing a flaming pearl, which is also rendered in vivid colour. The mystical object is inscribed with the Chinese character for ‘dragon’.
The coin’s obverse portrays the Ian Rank-Broadly effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the weight and fineness, monetary denomination and the 2020 year-date.
