The 2024 "Year of the Dragon" Silver Dollar is the fifth coin issued in the popular Australian Silver Lunar Series 3. The original twelve Australian Silver Lunar coins (1999-2010) had extremely low mintages (84,000 coins average per year) and are now very valuable and difficult to find. The Lunar Series II coins (2008-2019) differed from the original coins with a larger diameter (45 mm vs. 40.6 mm) and updated animal designs.

Due to the popularity of the series 1 and 2 coins, a third series was started in 2020 with the 2020 Year of the Mouse coin and continued with the 2021 Year of the Ox coin, the 2022 Year of the Tiger coin, and the 2023 Year of the Rabbit coin. This series will run from 2020 through 2031 to cover all twelve Chinese lunar animals.

The 2024 Year of the Dragon coin has incredible world-wide demand, due to its popularity in Asian and European countries. In fact, the 2012 Year of the Dragon coin quickly sold out and went up to $50-$100 in value for a short time due to high demand. Our supply of 2024 dragon coins is very limited and may sell out without notice.

Each coin is gem brilliant uncirculated with a gorgeous "reverse-proof" finish. The background is frosted while the images have a brilliant mirror finish. Each coin comes in a clear plastic capsule to protect the beautiful finish and contains one ounce 0.9999 fine silver.
