The years of the Dragon occur every 12 years and are believed to bring prosperity and positive energy. The position of the Chinese dragon in the Zodiac follows a 12-year cycle, starting with the Year of the Rat and ending with the Year of the Pig. Each animal sign is also associated with one of the five elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water), creating a 60-year cycle. Today, 100 Gram Scottsdale Silver Dragon Bars are available online from JM Bullion.

Within the cycle of the Zodiac, there can be a Wood Dragon, Fire Dragon, Earth Dragon, Metal Dragon, and Water Dragon, each with slightly different characteristics based on the combination of the animal sign and element.
All of the 100 Gram Scottsdale Silver Dragon Bars offered here come with protective plastic packaging for delivery. The bars have a blank reverse field with inscribed designs on the obverse that honor the Year of the Dragon in 2024.
The obverse side of the Scottsdale Silver Dragon Bar comes with a depiction of a powerful Chinese dragon. The full body of the dragon is shown in right-profile relief. The field includes inscriptions of the date, weight, metal content, purity, and serial number. On the reverse, the 100 Gram Silver Dragon Bar is blank, but may show signs of natural texture and striations from the production process.
The Chinese Lunar Calendar is based on both lunar and solar movements. The lunar months are used to determine the months of the calendar, while the solar year is used to align the calendar with the seasons. This combination of lunar and solar elements makes the Chinese Lunar Calendar a complex and precise timekeeping system that has been refined over centuries.
