On the obverse, the coin features the regal effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “AUSTRALIA,” and the denomination “1 DOLLAR.” The reverse depicts a magnificent Chinese dragon coiled around a flaming pearl, a symbol of knowledge and enlightenment. The intricate design is enriched with gold gilding, which highlights the dragon’s body in dramatic contrast against the silver field. The outer rim is adorned with ornate decorative patterns, alongside the year 2000, the Chinese character for “Dragon,” and the inscription “1 OZ 999 SILVER.” This coin is among the most sought-after pieces of the Lunar I program, combining cultural depth with exceptional numismatic craftsmanship.
