Description
2020 1 oz Australian Gold Double Dragon Coin
The Perth Mint has a history of creating unique designs and one of its more prominent issues of late involves the Chinese dragon and the flaming pearl. A popular concept across the ages in Chinese art, the dragon in pursuit of the pearl has been a fixture of Perth Mint coin releases since 2018. Now, you can find the 2020 1 oz Australian Gold Double Dragon Coin available to you online.
Coin Highlights:
- Coin arrives inside of a protective plastic capsule, rolls of 20 coins, or boxes of 100 coins!
- Limited mintage of only 5,000 coins!
- Contains 1 Troy oz of .9999 pure gold in BU condition.
- Issued a face value of $100 (AUD) by Australia.
- The obverse features Queen Elizabeth II.
- On the reverse are two dragons in pursuit of a flaming pearl.
The flaming pearl-and-dragon design elements have featured on various coin releases of late from the Perth Mint. While the flaming pearl and at least one dragon are a constant, the yin-yang nature of the design field on the reverse has included other animals relevant in Chinese mythology and culture.
Examples of other releases from the Perth Mint to use this design element include the Dragon and Tiger and Dragon and Phoenix design issues. In those cases, the dragon is depicted opposite the tiger or phoenix with both in pursuit of the flaming pearl. In this beautiful design, two dragons hunt the pearl of wisdom.
The obverse of the 2020 1 oz Australian Gold Double Dragon Coins includes the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. This is the Jody Clark design of Her Majesty that was created for the Royal Mint of England in 2015 and it currently serves as the sixth-generation portrait of the Queen for Australian coinage.
On the reverse side of 2020 Australian Gold Double Dragon Coins, you will find the image of two serpent-like dragons circling the outside of the design field. The two beasts look inward toward each other with an eye on the flaming pearl. The pearl, in the context of such Chinese depictions, represents infinite wisdom. The dragon is arguably the most influential beast in Chinese culture as it is the official symbol of the modern nation and was long associated with emperors of the past as a symbol of their own power.
These 2020 1 oz Australian Gold Double Dragon Coins are available to you in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and feature an individual protective plastic capsule. If you purchase multiples, you will receive them in rolls of 20 coins or boxes of 100 coins.
