Obverse

On the obverse side of the 2024 Australian Platinum Lunar Dragon Coins, you’ll find a detailed portrait of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. This design, crafted by Jody Clark in 2015, portrays Her Late Majesty at the age of 89, adorned with the George IV State Diadem.

Reverse

Turning to the reverse, the 2024 1 oz Platinum Lunar Dragon coin showcases an exquisite image of the Chinese dragon. The mythical creature is depicted in a graceful S-shaped pose with stylized waves and fog in the background. Alongside the P125 mint mark, you’ll notice a micro-engraved security feature on this side.

History

In Chinese culture, the dragon holds a special place as one of the 12 animal signs in the Chinese Zodiac, which is based on the lunar calendar. Each year is associated with a specific animal, and the Year of the Dragon is among these 12 years. Those born in the Year of the Dragon are believed to inherit the dragon’s unique traits and characteristics.
