The dragon is often depicted in Chinese art and symbolism as a fusion of contrasting forces. It embodies the concept of Yin and Yang, representing the balance between opposing but complementary forces. The dragon’s body might combine elements like the snake, fish, tiger, and eagle, showcasing the harmonious blending of these energies.
Chinese mythology often links dragons to celestial bodies. The dragon’s movements were believed to influence natural phenomena like rain, storms, and even eclipses. This cosmic connection emphasized the dragon’s role as a divine and powerful entity.
Obverse design elements on 2024 5 oz Proof Silver Year of the Dragon Coins include a bust of King Charles III. Martin Jennings created this portrait of His Majesty in late 2022 and it offers a left-profile relief with no crown on the head of the new monarch.
