The Year of the Dragon comes alive in spectacular detail on this massive five-ounce silver coin from Australia.

Struck in exceptionally pure 0.9999 fine silver by the Perth Mint, the reverse of the coin displays a powerful Chinese dragon alongside the Chinese character representing the mythical beast. The inscription "DRAGON 2024" is accompanied by a unique "P125" mint mark, which honors the 125th anniversary of the historic minting institution. On the obverse, the coin bears the Jody Clark effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, noting her historic reign from 1952 to 2022. This side also clearly displays the face value of 8 Dollars, the country of issue, and the precise weight and purity of the precious metal, all backed by the Australian government.
