AUSTRALIAN OPAL
Australia supplies the overwhelming majority of the world’s opal, a colourful mineral-like material which is put to outstanding artistic use in this exceptionally popular series. With previous Opal Lunar coins sold out, this Year of the Dragon addition is sure to be another keenly sought after collectable.
DRAGON DESIGN
The coin incorporates authentic Australian opal in its stunning dragon-shaped centrepiece. Including the Chinese character for ‘dragon’ and a ‘P125’ mintmark signifying The Perth Mint’s 125th anniversary, the coin’s outer ring features intricate patterning with stylised depictions of hyacinths, said to be lucky flowers for those born in the Year of the Dragon.
MEMORIAL OBVERSE
This coin portrays the official Queen Elizabeth II Memorial Obverse, featuring the Jody Clark effigy supplemented with the dates of Her Majesty’s reign – ‘1952 – 2022’.
PRESENTATION PACKAGING
Accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity, the coin is housed in a classic display case with a clear lid that comes in an illustrated shipper.
ABOUT THE PERTH MINT
The Perth Mint opened in 1899 as the British Royal Mint's 3rd branch in Australia. The historical Hay Street location handled gold refining until moving to a modern facility in April 1990. Ownership of the mint was transferred to the Government of Western Australia in July of 1970. Under an agreement with the Commonwealth Treasury, they were empowered to mint and market gold, silver, and platinum as Australian legal tender to investors and collectors worldwide. Today, they are amongst the elite world mints whose pure gold, silver, and platinum items are trusted without question. Items such as the Australian Nugget, Silver Coin Series (Kangaroo, Kookaburra, Koala, and Platypus to name a few), as well as the Australian Lunar Gold and Silver Coin Series are extensively sought after by bullion investors worldwide.
