Coin highlights
- Contains 0.496 oz actual Gold weight.
- Limited mintage of 1,888 coins.
- For an elegant presentation, your Lunar Year of the Dragon coin is housed in a red lacquered wood case with a red outer box, evoking the Chinese New Year custom of gifting “lucky money” in a red envelope.
- Obverse: The obverse features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. The obverse also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign.
- Reverse: Inspired by traditional Chinese art forms, the reverse design by artist Simon Ng celebrates the Year of the Dragon through its depiction of a Wood Dragon chasing the Dragon Pearl, or fire ball that represents wisdom and prosperity. The snake-like form of the auspicious creature echoes the stylized waves that rise and fall beneath it, like a landscape marked by rolling hills. Auspicious cherry blossoms appear on the dragon and in its surroundings, where the delicate flowers are connected by curved stems that create filigree patterns. The reverse includes the word “CANADA,” the Chinese character for “dragon” and the year “2024.”
