Dragons have played a significant role in Chinese culture and history for thousands of years.

Rwanda’s national coat of arms is found on the obverse of 2024 Rwandan Silver Lunar Dragon Coins. This design includes a traditional basket flanked by branches of coffee and sorghum. Beyond the agricultural branches, you will find traditional warrior shields and a cogwheel in the background field on this silver coin.
