Product Overview

The new Dragon and Tiger coin mimics the design elements of the recently-released Dragon and Phoenix coinage.
“N/A"
The dragon is the most significant beast in the cultural history of China. It is revered as a mythical being that embodies power, wealth, and good fortune. Those in Chinese society who are believed to possess good fortune are often associated with the dragon, while emperors have longed used the dragon as a symbol of their own power and wealth.
In Chinese culture, the tiger also plays a significant role. The tiger is viewed as a lucky animal as well and has been held in high regard for centuries. A symbol of power and bravery, the tiger’s common stripe pattern on its head reflects a design similar to that of a crown. Although these two beasts appear to circle one another on the new 2018 1 oz Australian Dragon and Tiger Silver Coin as foes, they are actually a good pairing.
