SILVER AND GOLD
Gold is the traditional colour of prosperity and good fortune, and on this 99.99% pure silver coin, the gold-plated design elements add an extra touch of luxury and an auspicious gleam.
THE DRAGON'S PEARL
The dragon’s precious pearl is a symbol of power, infinite wisdom and spiritual energy, and a golden pearl—like the gold-plated one depicted on the coin’s reverse—is traditionally believed to bring prosperity and good fortune.
AUSPICIOUS COLOUR
Red is the colour of luck and good fortune, and the coin comes beautifully packaged in an elegant, red lacquered wood case with a red outer box.
DID YOU KNOW?
- A golden dragon is traditionally a symbol of strength, power and wealth, and on the coin’s reverse, Tianlong is depicted with a pearl in its mouth—a popular Chinese motif since ancient times. Pearls continue to be associated with wisdom and wealth, spiritual energy (often in connection with the moon) and enlightenment.
DESIGN & ARTIST
Designed by Simon Ng, the coin’s reverse features a selectively gold-plated depiction of Tianlong, the benevolent Heavenly Dragon of Chinese mythology and the protector of celestial dwellings. With its feathered tail coiling gracefully behind it, Tianlong flits among the swirly clouds and holds a pearl in its mouth. The selectively gold-plated obverse features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. The obverse also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign.
The Heavenly Dragon’s head—the focal point of this design—and its mane were created using complex shapes and forms. While the rest of the dragon’s body swirls around the head, the actual rendering extended beyond the edge of the coin to further emphasize the Heavenly Dragon’s enormous power and size. Notice the rosette-shaped clouds appearing as part of the mane, and also in the foreground and background: they’re featured throughout the design to underline the significance of the celestial dragon. SIMON NG, Artist
PACKAGING
Each coin is housed in a red lacquered wood case and packaged in a red outer box, evoking the Chinese New Year "red envelope" tradition of bestowing a wish for luck and good fortune.
