Pièce 1 once d'or rectangulaire Dragon 2022 | Monnaie de Perth

Protect your wealth with the force of the mighty dragon with these stylish 9999 Fine Gold Rectangular Bullion coins!

A REVERED MYTHICAL BEAST!

In traditional Oriental culture, the serpentine-shaped dragon is revered as a noble, benevolent and wise creature offering mankind protection and guidance. Far from the monsters in Western folklore, they are considered divine, lucky and good.

FORTUITOUS DESIGN

The coin portrays a dragon chasing a magical pearl, a motif associated with prosperity and the power to make dreams come true. Included in the design is The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.

The Jody Clark effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II is portrayed on the obverse together with the coin’s weight, fineness, denomination and 2022 year-date.

WHAT IS A RECTANGULAR COIN?

Though it may look like a bar at first glance, this product is actually a rectangular coin. The key difference lies in its legal status.

Unlike bullion bars, which are not recognized as legal tender, rectangular coins are officially issued by government mints and carry a face value. That means each one is classified as currency—even though its intrinsic metal value far exceeds its denomination.

We refer to these products as coins to clearly distinguish them from standard bullion bars, helping you make informed decisions about the type of precious metals you're adding to your portfolio.

ABOUT THE PERTH MINT

The Perth Mint opened in 1899 as the British Royal Mint’s 3rd branch in Australia. The historical Hay Street location handled gold refining until moving to a modern facility in April 1990. Ownership of the mint was transferred to the Government of Western Australia in July of 1970. Under an agreement with the Commonwealth Treasury, they were empowered to mint and market gold, silver, and platinum as Australian legal tender to investors and collectors worldwide. Today, they are amongst one of the elite world mints whose pure gold, silver, and platinum items are trusted without question. Items such as the Australian Nugget, Silver Coin Series (Kangaroo, Kookaburra, Koala, and Platypus to name a few), as well as the Australian Lunar Gold and Silver Coin Series are extensively sought after by bullion investors worldwide.
