Technical Information

The 2012 Year of the Dragon, a 2012 99.99% pure silver commemorative 10-dollar coin from Canada.

The Royal Canadian Mint is proud to offer this 2012 1/2 ounce 99.99% pure silver commemorative coin created with old-world craftsmanship and skill. The reverse shows a four-clawed dragon stretching along the outer edge of the coin; its lines and contours full of fiery character; with a Chinese character and clouds representing its good fortune.

Dragons can become invisible, change their size and color at will. Good or evil, dragons have fuelled man’s imagination for thousands of years—in virtually every part of the world. While Western cultures have viewed dragons as evil beasts of destruction, their symbolism in the Orient is quite the opposite—they are celebrated omens of prosperity.

Includes Capsule, Individually-Numbered Certificate of Authenticity, Red Cardboard Pocket, and Red Envelope with the coin design and Chinese wishes printed on it in Gold and Red Foil.
