Comment
For thousands of years, the legendary dragon has been an integral part of Asian culture. But unlike the menacing fire-eaters of the West, Eastern dragons are friendly and benevolent. These powerful beings are the ones who bring vital rain to the crops during Chinese New Year, China's most important cultural celebration. Their noble strength also shines through at dragon boat races, during which paddlers propel their boats to the resounding sound of drums.Packaging
The coin is encapsulated and presented in a burgundy double-shell case featuring the Royal Canadian Mint logo. The case is accompanied by a black box.
Interesting fact
The Dragon Luck coin features a unique design that showcases a dragon wrapped around the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, symbolizing the dragon's protection and blessing for the Queen and the people of Canada.
