2024 Tokelau $5 1-oz Silver Year of the Dragon Mirror Proof
Year Of The Dragon Coin Is Like Two Coins In One!
On February 10, 2023, one day before Super Bowl LVIII kicks off in Las Vegas, the Year of the Dargon officially begins. The most powerful sign in the Chinese lunar calendar, the Dragon is the sign vitality and strength. People born during the Year of the Dragon are said to be aggressive, determined, and have no reservations about going after what they want. In China, the Dragon is the sign of the Emperor and the symbol of power and wealth. It’s also male element Yang to the female element’s Yin. To pay tribute to this popular lunar year, the island nation of Tokelau has issued an extremely limited proof coin that’s actually like two coins in one! This beautiful coin is struck in a full troy ounce of 99.9% fine silver and features both a traditional proof finish AND a unique reverse proof finish!
Simple Yet Elegant Year-of-the-Dragon Design
This simple-yet-elegant design depicts two sleek dragons as mirror reflections of each other, each occupying one half of the coin. The left half of the coin features a standard proof finish with a frosted image against a mirrored background. The coin’s right half is just the opposite—a reverse proof finish with a mirrored image and a frosted background! The graceful design really stands out on this extraordinary legal-tender coin that measures an impressive 65 mm in diameter. Plus, your proof will come in its original mint packaging and accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
The Chinese Lunar Calendar’s Year of the Dragon occurs every 12 years. Besides 2024, other Dragon years include 2012, 2000, 1988, 1976, 1933, 1952, 1940 and 1928. Famous people born during the Year of the Dragon include Joan of Arc, Julius Caesar, Adele, Ringo Starr, Pelé, and Martin Luther King Jr.
