2024 Australia 1/2 oz Silver Lunar Dragon Proof (w/Box & COA)

0.5000 troy oz .9999 2024 Proof

The Year of the Dragon comes alive in stunning detail on this half-ounce silver coin from the Australian Lunar Series III collection. Struck with a proof finish from 99.99 percent pure silver, this legal tender piece represents a fusion of traditional cultural themes and modern numismatic artistry. The reverse side features a dynamic Chinese dragon alongside the corresponding Chinese character for the creature, accompanied by the inscription 'DRAGON 2024'. Collectors will also notice a unique 'P125' mint mark, which signifies the 125th anniversary of the Perth Mint. On the obverse, the coin pays tribute to the late monarch with the Jody Clark effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, noting her historic reign from 1952 to 2022. Surrounding the portrait are inscriptions detailing the coin's weight of 1/2 ounce, its 9999 silver purity, and the face value of 50 cents. With a strict mintage limit of only 5,000 pieces, this release is a highly focused celebration of the fifth animal in the zodiac cycle.
