The dragon is a legendary reptilian creature steeped in cultural significance. In Western folklore it is portrayed as a winged beast that unleashes a destructive flame. In the Eastern tradition, however, the serpentine-shaped dragon is a symbol of potent power and abundant good fortune.

This carefully crafted pure silver rectangular proof coin features a minted impression of a meticulously detailed depiction of an oriental dragon, snarling with open claws and intricately scaled wings. The design also incorporates the inscription '2025’, and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.

The obverse bears the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III. It features radiant lines in the background, along with the inscription “CHARLES III AUSTRALIA”, and the coin’s weight, purity, and monetary denomination.
