Those born under the sign of the Chinese Lunar Dragon in 2024, 2012, 2000, 1988, 1976 and every 12th preceding year, are said to be ambitious, successful, and charismatic.

The coin bears the Jody Clark Memorial Obverse of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II supplemented with the dates of her reign ‘1952-2022’, as well as the weight and fineness, and the monetary denomination.

This coin is even better in person. Being 1/4 oz it’s big enough that you can see the detail. Great design and recommended

Great design in the Gold. I personally prefer it over the silver coin’s design.
