2024 Perth Mint Silver Lunar Dragon Coin 2oz

Description

Bullion Now in conjunction with the Perth Mint is proud to offer you the widely anticipated 2024 Perth Mint Lunar Dragon release in silver.

These magnificent silver coins celebrate the Year of the Dragon, the fifth of twelve animals associated with the ancient Chinese lunar calendar. Those born under the sign of the Chinese Lunar Dragon in 2024, 2012, 2000, 1988, 1976 and every
12th preceding year, are said to be ambitious, successful, and charismatic.

No mintage limit applies to the 1 kilo, 5oz, 2oz and 1/2oz coins. Except for the 1 kilo release, production of these coins will close at the end of 2024 when The Perth Mint will declare each coin’s official mintage. A maximum of 100 10 kilo coins will be produced on a mint-to-order basis. Similarly, production will close at the end of 2024, when the coin’s mintage will be
declared.

Meticulously struck from 99.99% pure silver, the coins are issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965.

DESIGN
The coin’s reverse portrays a dragon with water cascading from its mouth, stylised waves, and a flaming pearl, a symbol of wisdom. Included in the design is the Chinese character for ‘dragon’, the inscription ‘DRAGON 2024’ and a ‘P125’ mintmark signifying The Perth Mint’s 125th anniversary.

The coin bears the Jody Clark Memorial Obverse of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II supplemented with the dates of
her reign ‘1952-2022’, as well as the weight and fineness, and the monetary denomination.

AUTHENTICATION FEATURE
The reverse of all coins except the 10 kilo includes a security feature in the form of a micro-engraved letter within the design. It is only detectable under a magnifying glass.

PRESENTATION
Each bullion coin is presented in a protective acrylic capsule.
