Description
Step into the realm where celestial might meets earthly resolve—Chinese Myths and Legends – Dragon and Horse brings to life an ancient symbolic union through the artistry of The Perth Mint. This 1oz .9999 silver coin captures a dynamic interplay between two revered creatures: the dragon, embodying wisdom and heavenly energy, and the horse, representing endurance and indomitable spirit. Their convergence is not merely visual but elemental—fire and earth rendered in vivid colours to evoke strength, vitality, and auspicious fortune.
The reverse design, crafted by Natasha Muhl, features a coloured depiction of a majestic horse on the left with its mane flowing and hooves raised in vibrant red, symbolising fire, while a fierce dragon coils on the right in rich green, its serpentine form and fish-like scales denoting earth. Stylised cloud motifs fill the background, alongside the 2026 year-date and The Perth Mint’s distinctive 'P10' mintmark, commemorating the 10th anniversary of the Chinese Myths and Legends Series. Every detail is anchored in authenticity, including a micro-laser engraved letter embedded within the design—a discreet security feature visible only under magnification.
Struck to BU (Brilliant Uncirculated) quality, this coin showcases the technical excellence of The Perth Mint. The obverse bears the effigy of Charles III, designed by Dan Thorne, encircled by the inscriptions “CHARLES III AUSTRALIA 2026 1 DOLLAR.” The coin balances bold presence with precise craftsmanship, it stands as a testament to the harmonious fusion of mythic narrative and modern minting mastery.
