Celebrating the fifth animal in the Chinese lunar calendar, this exquisite legal tender piece represents a standout entry in The Perth Mint’s renowned Australian Lunar Series III. Struck from one-half troy ounce of 99.99% pure fine silver, the coin highlights a magnificent vibrant red Chinese dragon portrayed alongside stylised water cascades and a flaming pearl—symbolising power, wisdom, and auspicious fortune.
The obverse displays the Jody Clark Memorial Effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, augmented with the dates of her historic reign (1952–2022). Minted under strict quality controls, this coin exhibits high eye appeal with its brilliant field definition and meticulous color application, protected inside its original Perth Mint protective acrylic capsule.
For Australian decimal collectors, lunar series enthusiasts, and world silver bullion buyers, this release offers strong long-term numismatic appeal and value retention. Combining legal tender status, iconic craftsmanship, and limited mintage demand, it stands as an essential addition to any modern precious metal collection.
