Special features

• Fifth Chinese spiritual dragon. Chinese spiritual dragons are regarded as benevolent mythological creatures, and they are among our most popular annual themes. Inspired by Chinese mythology, this coin continues our tradition of showcasing the art motifs, symbols and legends that are a cherished part of Chinese-Canadian culture.
• Affordable gold. Struck on a 1/20 oz. (14.1 mm diameter) gold blank, this limited collectible is one of the most affordable ways to own 99.99% pure gold. It is slightly smaller than a dime, but the complexity of its engraved design will astound you!
