The dragon commands the highest respect in Chinese culture. For thousands of years, it was associated with the emperor and his descendants, symbolising wisdom, enlightenment, and benevolence. The dragon is also one of the 12 animals featured in the ancient lunar calendar. Those born under the sign of the lunar dragon in 2024, 2012, 2000, 1988, 1976, and every 12th preceding year, are said to be ambitious, successful, and charismatic.
The coin’s reverse portrays a Golden coloured Chinese dragon and a flaming pearl, a symbol of wisdom.
The coin is presented in a stylised presentation card which features a fold-out stand for upright display.
