Description
Celebrate the Year of the Dragon and mark a special moment in 2024 with this 1 ounce $15 fine silver coin from the Royal Canadian Mint. The whimsical Dragon on this fine silver coin is quietly confident and clever—traits that are associated with those born in the year of the Wood Dragon (2024). The natural leader of the Chinese Zodiac, the Dragon symbolizes strength and fortune. It is known for its ability to make things happen when it focuses its energy, and in a year associated with the Wood element, there is the potential for groundbreaking ideas that bring progress and prosperity. The coin comes presented in an
attractive red beauty box and case. HST/GST exempt.
The Design:
The courageous and clever Dragon bears a playful expression as it snakes across the coin, with its head facing West and its tail facing East. The lucky number seven, which is also associated with harmony and prosperity, is represented by the Dragon’s seven heart-shaped scales.
The obverse features the posthumous effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt with a repeating scallop pattern.
Those born between February 10, 2024 and January 28, 2025 will fall into the Year of the Dragon, as will those born in 2012, 2000, 1988, 1976, 1964, 1952, 1940 and 1928.
