Whether you're looking to collect coins that date back to the 20th century or you just want to bring a little symbolic luck to your display case, this Auspicious Matters coin may be a must-have. You can get the 1997 1/10 oz Chinese Auspicious Matters Gold Coin at JM Bullion.
This coin arrives in a protective plastic capsule to safeguard it during shipping. Keep it in the capsule for display and storage if you desire to help ward off wear and tear and damage from elements.
The obverse of the 1997 Chinese Auspicious Matters Gold Coin depicts the huabiao that stands in front of the Tiananmen gate in Beijing. The huabiao represented was built in the 15th century in the Ming dynasty and is one of four total huabiaos at the Tiananmen gate. These columns, which are traditional Chinese architecture, are normally erected in pairs. Two stand outside and two stand inside the gate. Floral sprays are depicted below the monument in the image on the coin.
The reverse of the coin is, perhaps, what makes it a favorite for many collectors. A young Chinese child is holding a large carp, which is a fish that is associated with luck. The child is also sitting amid lotus flowers, which are symbols of transcendence or purity. The image seems to indicate that the child is holding on to his luck. Chinese myth says that carp that make the jump over the Dragon Gate turn into dragons, which are considered lucky creatures themselves. Some believe that carp are considered luck in part because the Chinese word for fish sounds like the word for abundance.
Whether you're looking to bring more abundance to your coin stack with a bit of gold or you like the symbolism and historical images on this coin, you can buy the 1997 1/10 oz Chinese Auspicious Matters Gold Coin at JM Bullion.
