Add a popular Australian bullion design to your collection with the 2018 $1 Australian Dragon Silver Bar. Struck from 1 troy ounce of .9999 fine silver by The Perth Mint, this rectangular bullion coin combines traditional Chinese dragon imagery with the craftsmanship and government-backed status of Australian legal tender.
The reverse features a detailed Chinese dragon pursuing a flaming pearl, an important motif in traditional Chinese culture. The dragon is commonly associated with strength, power, and good fortune, while the flaming pearl is associated with wisdom and prosperity. The intricate design stretches across the rectangular format, giving the artwork a distinctive presentation compared with traditional round bullion coins.
The obverse features the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Queen Elizabeth II along with the inscriptions identifying the 2018 date, $1 Australian denomination, and issuing country. The rectangular format and limited production have made the Australian Dragon series a popular choice among collectors of Perth Mint bullion and dragon-themed precious metals.
This is a secondary market item and has been previously owned or handled. It may exhibit light surface wear, scratches, contact marks, spotting, toning, or other cosmetic signs of previous handling and storage.
