Chinese artistic traditions portray dragons as sinuous, serpentine creatures with four legs, flowing manes, and the ability to fly without wings, often shown amid swirling clouds or emerging from turbulent waters. These magnificent beings appear in intricate brushwork on silk scrolls, carved into jade and stone, and painted on porcelain, typically featuring vibrant colors like imperial yellow and deep red to emphasize their celestial nature and royal associations.

The obverse of the 2025 Australian Rectangular Gold Dragon comes with a portrait of King Charles III. His Majesty is shown here in left-profile relief without a crown on his head. This effigy was created for Perth Mint by Dan Thorne.

On the reverse of 2025 1 oz Gold Dragon Coins, the design element showcases a mighty Chinese dragon with its serpentine body wrapping through the design field. Unlike their Western counterparts, Chinese dragons are benevolent creatures associated with prosperity and protection, deeply woven into festivals, architecture, and daily life as harbingers of luck and imperial strength.
