2024-P Australia $1 1-oz Silver Dragon Bar BU

Perth Mint’s Silver Dragon Bar Returns For A Seventh Year

Holding a preeminent place in Chinese culture, the dragon looms large over such things as terrain, life, and energy. Some believe that he brings the waters of rain, the warmth of sunshine, water, and earth. Others say that the mountains, valleys, rivers, buildings, and highways correlate to the creature’s head, claws, tail, and veins. For centuries, even the Chinese emperors referred to themselves as “dragons.”

Stunning Design Celebrates The Year Of The Dragon

Here you can secure Australia’s seventh release in its first ever rectangular bullion coin series with the 2024 Australia One-Ounce Silver Dragon Bar. Struck by the world-renowned Perth Mint in a full ounce of highly pure 99.99% silver, the new coin features a stunning design of an oriental dragon eyeing a flaming pearl, a symbol of wisdom. The background includes representations of water over which the dragon has control, and clouds, omens of good luck. The design also incorporates the inscription “2024.” which in lunar mythology is the Year of the Dragon, and a “P125” mintmark signifying The Perth Mint’s 125th anniversary. The coin’s weight, fineness, and denomination are shown on the obverse along with the effigy of King Charles III. Plus, each rectangular coin available in this offer is $1 legal-tender and comes in gleaming Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition, meaning that they feature superb strikes that place them firmly among the elite of the run.
