2000 Australia 1 kilo Silver Year of the Dragon BU
2000 Australia 1 kilo Silver Year of the Dragon BU
Struck from one kilogram of 99.9 percent pure silver, this massive Australian coin represents the second release in the initial twelve-coin Lunar Series. With a restricted mintage of only 7,805 pieces, the coin stands as a significant and substantial legal tender issue backed by the Australian government. The reverse side displays a detailed depiction of a legendary Chinese dragon alongside a pearl of wisdom. This intricate scene, created by artist Tony Dean, also incorporates the specific Chinese character representing the dragon. It is a powerful design that celebrates ancient folklore on a grand scale. On the obverse, the coin features the Ian Rank-Broadley portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Surrounding this central effigy are inscriptions indicating the country of origin, the weight of one kilo, the silver purity, and the face value of 30 Dollars.
