1 oz Platinum Round - Johnson Matthey Dragon (.9995 Fine)
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the prestigious refiners at Johnson Matthey produced a striking platinum round that remains a fascinating object of study for enthusiasts of vintage precious metals. Struck in one troy ounce of highly pure 0.9995 platinum, this piece stands out for its artistry and its place in the history of private minting. Because these rounds are no longer in production, they represent a completed chapter in the legacy of a legendary assayer. The obverse of the round features a detailed, winding serpentine dragon, a powerful motif that contrasts beautifully with the clean, industrial aesthetic of the reverse. On the back, the classic Johnson Matthey logo is displayed alongside the official weight and purity markers, reading as one ounce troy of 0.9995 fine platinum. This combination of mythical imagery and precise assay standards makes the round a compelling subject for those exploring the evolution of modern platinum bullion design.
