FIGURE EIGHT DRAGON 2018 2oz SILVER COIN $2 NGC 69
This figure eight shaped coin is a first in innovative design for The Perth Mint and the first of its kind in the world.
In Chinese culture, the number eight is considered extremely lucky as the Chinese word for ‘eight’ sounds similar to ? which means good fortune or money. The number eight is also uniquely symmetric and, when laid on its side, resembles the mathematical symbol for infinity.
Each coin is struck by The Perth Mint from 2oz of 99.99% pure silver.
DESIGN
Across the figure eight shape, the coin’s reverse features two dragons wrapped around one another and holding coins in their claws. The Perth Mint’s traditional ‘P’ mintmark also appears in the design.
The Ian Rank – Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the monetary denomination, and the 2018 year – date are shown on the coin’s obverse.
PRESENTATION
Each coin is presented with a clear acrylic case, and is packaged within an illustrated shipper. The coin is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
