2018 Figure Eight Dragon 2oz Silver Antiqued Coin

This innovative figure eight shaped coin is a first in design for The Perth Mint and the first of its kind in the world.

In Chinese culture, the number eight is considered extremely lucky as the Chinese word for ‘eight’ sounds similar to 发 which means good fortune or money. The number eight is also uniquely symmetric and, when laid on its side, resembles the mathematical symbol for infinity.
