2024 Australia 1 oz Gold Lunar Year of the Dragon BU
2024 Australia 1 oz Gold Lunar Year of the Dragon BU
The year 2024 marks the arrival of the wood dragon, the fifth animal in the twelve year lunar cycle. To celebrate this occasion, the Royal Australian Mint produced a stunning gold coin containing one ounce of extremely pure 0.9999 fine gold. This institution, which first opened its doors in 1965, holds a special place in numismatic history as the very first Australian mint established independently from the British Royal Mint. On the obverse, the coin displays a detailed lunar calendar wheel surrounding the portrait of King Charles III, which was designed by sculptor Daniel Thorne. The reverse side presents a powerful depiction of a dragon navigating through clouds, accompanied by the inscription "Year of the Dragon" alongside the weight and purity of the gold. With a strict mintage limit of only 5,000 pieces, this brilliant uncirculated coin is a fascinating study in modern minting artistry.
