A Never-Ending Symbol of Harmony & Good Fortune

2020 marks the third year that artisans at Australia’s world-renowned Perth Mint have struck a Figure 8 coin – and when you get a look at this entry in the series, you’ll have to admit they’re getting pretty good at it!

OK, we get it, that’s a bit of an understatement, but this incredible design is so beautiful we’re almost at a loss for words! It depicts a dragon encircling one hole of the “8” and a phoenix curving around the other to create a striking “Yin” and “Yang” depiction of harmony in traditional Chinese culture. Significant? You bet! The dragon is a symbol of power, strength wealth and good fortune. The phoenix is an immortal bird that, though rarely seen, is a portent of harmony. In addition, they are perfectly matched for each other according to the Chinese philosophy of feng shui.

Now struck in two ounces of highly pure 99.99% silver, the Dragon & Phoenix are ready to spread harmony and good fortune in your collection. And with the addition of a special antiqued finish that adds even more depth to the already engaging design, you can actually hold this coin in your hands without fear of damaging its lustrous finish. And here’s something else: when you lay this coin on its side, the figure 8 resembles the mathematical symbol for infinity – a vitally important principle in feng shui whose unending shape evokes ever-lasting love.

But these coins will not last forever. That’s because the Perth Mint is limited the worldwide mintage for this piece to just 3,888 coins. That edition limit is auspicious both for the number “8” being considered lucky in China as well as it being an extremely small amount considering all the people around the world who would like to own one. Plus, each coin will come displayed in a clear acrylic case that allows you to view both sides of the coin. The case will arrive in a colorful Dragon & Phoenix-themed shipper and accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity from the Perth Mint.
