A Unique Collectible for 2024

Stunning Dragon Imagery with Deep Cultural Meaning

The reverse features a brilliantly colorized golden dragon suspended amidst cascading water as it reaches for the flaming pearl, a legendary Chinese symbol representing wisdom, prosperity, and power. The scene captures motion and balance, channeling the traditional belief that dragons are guardians of good fortune. The reverse also includes the Chinese character for "dragon", the inscription "DRAGON 2024", and the commemorative “P125” mint mark, acknowledging The Perth Mint’s 125th anniversary.

On the obverse, the coin displays the elegant effigy of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Jody Clark. The rim features the inscriptions "1952–2022" to honor the Queen’s reign, as well as the coin’s face value, weight, and purity.

Limited Mintage & ANA Show Significance

The mintage is strictly capped at just 5,000 coins, and this special edition was created exclusively for the ANA’s World’s Fair of Money in Chicago. These releases serve to highlight the prestige of the show and draw collectors from around the world. Such low-mintage show-exclusive coins frequently develop strong aftermarket demand due to their rarity and distinctive presentation.
