Welcome to the Perth Mint’s Lunar Series program, a tradition that began in 1996 with the introduction of lunar-themed coins. In 2020, the Lunar Series entered its third iteration, known as Lunar Series III. Now, you have the opportunity to own the 2024 Australian Lunar Dragon 2 oz Gold Coins, available online at Provident Metals.
Highlights:
Every 2024 Australian Lunar Dragon 2 oz Gold Coin includes a protective capsule to ensure its pristine condition. These coins are in brilliant uncirculated condition and boast an unlimited mintage, meaning that Perth Mint will continue to produce them throughout 2024. This release holds special significance as it includes a distinctive P125 mint mark, commemorating the 125th anniversary of Perth Mint’s establishment in 1899.
Obverse
On the obverse of the 2024 Australian Lunar Dragon Gold Coins, you’ll find a timeless portrait of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The Lunar Series III program continues to feature Elizabeth II on the obverse, showcasing the 2015 design by Jody Clark. This right-profile relief depicts the Queen at the age of 89, adorned with the George IV State Diadem. Inscriptions read ELIZABETH II, 1952-2022, AUSTRALIA, 2 OZ 9999 AU, and 200 DOLLARS.
Reverse
The reverse side of the 2024 Lunar Dragon 2 oz Gold Coin presents a graceful depiction of the Chinese dragon. In contrast to Western mythology, this dragon is not portrayed as a fearsome fire-breather but as a symbol of benevolence, power, water, rain, and agriculture. It is often depicted as a long, serpentine creature with antler-like horns and the ability to control the weather. This side of the coin also features the special anniversary mint mark and a micro-engraved security element. The inscriptions on this side include DRAGON, 2024, P125, and the Chinese symbol for the dragon.
History
For the 2024 Year of the Dragon, Perth Mint once again collaborated with artist Ing Ing Jong. Ms. Jong has been a valued artist at Perth Mint since 2011, and her involvement with lunar collections began in 2013 with the Year of the Snake design in Lunar Series II. In 2024, she contributed her artistic talents to both the silver and gold coins, with the gold design also being featured on the platinum coin.
