Design:
The obverse features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Jody Clark, along with the coin’s weight, purity, denomination, and year of issue. The reverse depicts two rabbits among grasses beneath overhanging branches, accompanied by the Chinese character for “Rabbit.” A distinctive Dragon privy mark appears on the reverse, symbolizing strength, prosperity, and good fortune while adding an exclusive collectible element unavailable on the standard bullion release.
Collectibility:
The Dragon is considered the most auspicious creature in Chinese mythology, making this privy-marked issue especially desirable among Lunar Series collectors. Its limited mintage of only 30,000 coins, combined with Perth Mint’s exceptional craftsmanship and the popularity of Lunar Series III, gives this release strong long-term collector appeal. The Dragon privy also distinguishes it from the regular 2023 Rabbit bullion coin, creating additional demand among collectors seeking lower-mintage variants.
