2021 Ao Shun – Black Dragon 2oz Silver Copper Coin

Introducing The Black Dragon Silver Coin

Discover the allure of the 2021 Ao Shun – Black Dragon 2oz Silver Coin, a stunning piece inspired by the Dragon King of the North Sea. Known as the Black Dragon or 黑龍 in Chinese, Ao Shun embodies the elements of winter and water, rising powerfully from the sea towards the northern sky.

Exquisite Design and Craftsmanship

This collectable coin features Ao Shun magnificently illustrated with the horizon separating the sea and sky beneath him. The ultra-high relief and deep indentations create an exceptional 3D effect, highlighting the translucent black enamel applied to the water, symbolising Ao Shun’s revered status.

Rich Historical Significance

In ancient Chinese geography, large water bodies were found in each of the four cardinal directions, metaphorically representing the boundaries of China. Each sea was governed by a Dragon King, powerful creatures worshipped to bring peace and safety to all water bodies and believed to control all weather on Earth.

Innovative Minting Technique

The 2021 Ao Shun – Black Dragon 2oz Silver Coin showcases a new minting technique called “Bi-Metal Reverse”. By combining 2oz of silver with a top layer of 11.5oz of copper, this coin achieves a remarkable weight and 80 mm diameter, making it double the size of a regular 2oz coin. The super ultra-high relief brings out every intricate detail, finished with antiqued silver.
