2012 Australia Year of the Dragon 1 oz Silver Proof Colorized Coin ANDA Melbourne Show Special | Perth Mint

2012 Australia Year of the Dragon 1 oz Silver Proof Colorized Coin
ANDA Melbourne Coin Show Special

Presented here is one of the most collectible special releases from the acclaimed Australian Lunar Series II—the 2012 Year of the Dragon 1 oz Silver Proof Colorized Coin, issued exclusively by the Perth Mint for the ANDA Melbourne Coin Show held July 7–8, 2012.

This special edition features a stunning yellow (gold) colorized dragon design that distinguishes it from the Sydney Coin Show release. Produced exclusively for the Melbourne ANDA show, it was never offered through the Perth Mint's regular retail distribution, making it a highly sought-after collectible.

The dragon represents strength, prosperity, wisdom, and success in Chinese culture, making this one of the flagship releases of the Lunar Series II program. The combination of vibrant selective color, brilliant proof finish, and exclusive ANDA presentation creates an exceptional addition to any advanced Lunar collection.
