Wood dragon
According to the Chinese philosophy of Wuxing (Five Elements Theory), the ebb and flow of five fundamental elements - wood, fire, earth, metal, and water - are responsible for the change in all things in the cosmos. In lunar astrology, it is believed these interconnected elements take turns to further shape the destiny of people born under each sign. In 2024, the dragon is influenced by wood - consequently ‘wood dragons’ are thought to be warm, wise, generous, and compassionate.
Dragon design
The coin portrays five intricately coloured Chinese dragons centred around a spiral denoting the ever-recurring lunar cycle. Each dragon is accompanied by a circular motif containing the English word and Chinese character for one of the five elements. These motifs are appended with a symbolic representation of the element.
H.M. King Charles III effigy
The coin’s obverse bears the Jody Clark effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, as well as the coin’s weight and fineness, the monetary denomination, and 2024 year-date.
Presentation packaging
Accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity, the coin is housed in a presentation case and themed shipper.
