A new coin.
The 2009 Australian $1 silver coin “Chinese Mythology – Fortune” is a striking release that blends numismatic mastery with the rich symbolism of Chinese culture. Struck in 1 oz of .999 fine silver and graded MS69 by PCGS, it belongs to the Chinese Mythology series, which celebrates traditional values and auspicious elements.
On the obverse, the coin depicts the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, with inscriptions ELIZABETH II – AUSTRALIA 2009 – 1 DOLLAR – 1 oz 999 SILVER. The reverse presents a vibrant colored image of the God of Fortune (Caishen), dressed in ornate red and blue robes, holding a scroll with Chinese characters symbolizing prosperity and wealth. Above him appears the Chinese calligraphy for “Fortune,” while below, the inscription FORTUNE reinforces the theme.
Fortune, a central concept in Chinese mythology, embodies abundance, success, and blessings. The presence of Caishen has long been associated with prosperity and good luck, making this coin not only a collectible but also a cultural talisman. With its prooflike brilliance, artistic color application, and near-perfect certification, this silver dollar is a coveted piece for both collectors of world coins and admirers of Asian heritage.
