These magnificent gold coins celebrate the Year of the Dragon, the fifth of twelve animals associated with the ancient Chinese lunar calendar. Those born under the sign of the Chinese Lunar Dragon in 2024, 2012, 2000, 1988, 1976 and every
12th preceding year, are said to be ambitious, successful, and charismatic.

No mintage limit applies to the 10oz, 2oz, 1/2oz, 1/4oz, 1/10oz, and 1/20oz coins. However, production will close at the end of 2024 when The Perth Mint will declare each coin’s official mintage.

Meticulously struck from 99.99% pure gold, the coins are issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965.

*Please Note: The 10oz gold, 2oz gold, 1/2oz gold and 1/20oz gold coins will not be available at launch and cannot be sold. The Perth Mint will advise when these coins are available for sale.
