In 2019, the Chinese Mint introduced an eight-coin series featuring the most popular and valuable vintage coins. The series features limited mintages for each dragon-themed design and a first-ever for Chinese Mint coins: laser-etched hallmarks on the rim. Struck by the Shanghai Mint branch, these coins represent a great collectible series. Today, 2019 1 oz Chinese Kiangnan Dragon Gold Coins are available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
The Kiangnan dragon, a lesser-known variant of Chinese dragon mythology, originates specifically from the Jiangnan region south of the Yangtze River. Unlike the imperial dragons of northern China that symbolized the emperor’s power, the Kiangnan dragon emerged from the water-rich landscape of canals, lakes, and rice paddies that characterize this fertile region.
All 2019 1 oz Chinese Kiangnan Dragon Gold Coins offered here are packaged in individual protective capsules. The first release in the eight-coin series replicating historic Chinese currency, this particular coin is a restrike of the original 1904 Kiangnan Chinese Silver Dragon Dollar. The coins were issued with an extremely low mintage of just 100 coins.
The obverse of 2019 Chinese Kiangnan Dragon Gold Coins replicates the original coin’s design with a depiction of a dragon. Often depicted with fewer claws and more fish-like characteristics, Kiangnan dragons were believed to control rainfall and flooding, crucial elements for agricultural communities whose livelihoods depended on water management.
On the reverse of 2019 1 oz Kiangnana Dragon Gold Coin, the restrike coin features the original inscriptions from the 1904 dollar. These hallmarks represent a variety of details from the historic coin, while the rim of the coin has laser-etched hallmarks with the year, weight, and purity of the restrike coin.
