Product Description

VERGULDE DRAECK (GILT DRAGON) – AUSTRALIAN SHIPWRECK SERIES – 2020 1 oz Pure Silver Antique Coin in Capsule – Royal Australian Mint

In collaboration with The Royal Australian Mint, LPM is pleased to present the second release in the Australian Shipwreck Silver Antiqued sub-series featuring the Vergulde Draeck (Gilt Dragon). Strictly limited to a low mintage of 1,000, the Gilt Dragon follows on from the popular first release in the series featuring the Batavia.

The exquisite design of the reverse conveys two scenes to communicate the journey of the Gilt Dragon. With the image of the ship viewed upright, the Gilt Dragon is shown setting sail in its full glory. Flipping the coin to view the text of ‘1656’ and ‘Vergulde Draeck’ upright depicts the ship in its final state capsized shortly after wrecking in 1656. The obverse design depicts scenes from the dramatic story of the Gilt Dragon before its ultimate demise.
