Mythical Creatures 2024 Dragon Gold Bullion Coin
Details
The Perth Mint is pleased to release this 1/4 ounce gold bullion coin featuring a mythical dragon.

In the Eastern tradition, however, the serpentine-shaped dragon is a benevolent symbol of power and good fortune. Each coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965.
