Did Perth Mint get this WRONG? ... NEW 2024 Lunar Dragon review & rant!

The Dragon Pandemic has started! 🐲 The highly anticipated Perth Mint Lunar Year of the Dragon coins have just been released. This typically marks the beginning of buying frenzy for lunar coins, and as with previous issues, sees numerous reviews, comments and predictions from the precious metals community.
Unlike most years before, the buzz amongst the community have been fairly mixed, with many sharing their disapproval with the design of the dragon. Content creators have shared similar sentiments so with the arrival of these Dragons, I wasted no time in getting a few so that I can share my thoughts on this issue.
To be honest (I mentioned this in the video), I thought the coin looked better in my hands than in the pictures released by the Mint. The design looks very different from the previous Lunars and if I didn't know any better, I would have assumed this Dragon is from a different series.
So join me in this video as I review the coin and share my thoughts about the design. Do stay tuned till the end for there will be a special announcement. My thanks to all for taking the time to watch and support this channel. You have my love respect and friendship. Peace and Blessings everyone! 🥰

The Perth Mint is still my favorite even with this confusing dragon. It's like that girl that did you wrong, but you still love her. Also I have completed series I & II, so I can't stop now.

[@send2georgie_S2G]

Wow thats amazing Space4LSB! I dunno if anyone who have all three Lunar series so well done. I didn’t get the First Series as premiums were just too high. Lunar Series II and III will be good enough for me. Cheers and keep stacking ‘em dragons 🐉✌🏻

I like the 2024 dragon - and the powerful blast is amazing - I received mine from PM but not opened yet as I’ll do a vid on it with the platinum coin - thanks for sharing 👍

I will be looking forward to your video Seven and congrats on getting the silver and platinum dragons. Will you be adding the gold version? Do share with us. Cheers and keep on stacking my friend ✌🏻😊

[@RussellBury]

Its a water dragon so i think its water coming out of its mouth. I have enjoyed collecting this series and liked the adult and infant theme, the dragon does look out of place, perth mint have done this type of dragon design to death already and should have kept to the formula already established for this series, they could of had the dragon protecting an egg if an infant dragon did not fit but i personally do not like the design.

[@send2georgie_S2G]

I gotta agree with you RusselB. TBH I holds no idea this was a water dragon. Thanks for sharing, always wonderful to learn from the community. The Perth Mint would be well advised reading all the feedbacks shared by this community. Cheers and keep stacking ‘em dragons 🐉✌🏻

Great upload! I totally agree, there should have been 2 dragons! Where did you get your red/clear acrylic coin cases? I have seen a few online but they are not big enough to house Perth Mint Lunar III coins. Thanks!!

Hiya Kim. Thanks for watching and sharing your comment. Yes, it appears that the general consensus amongst collectors PM could have done better with the Dragon design. I got the coin trays from a local contact here. They are also available at GE Goh Stamps & Coins. You can find details in the coin store visits videos in my channel. Hope that helps. Cheers and keep stacking ✌🏻😊

I’m sure you will, I know from your vids that you do collect these Lunars. So despite how disappointed we are with the design, we still have to get at least one to keep our set updated. Perhaps thats why PM released the Dragons in the first place, they know collectors like us have no choice but to buy these new coins ✌🏻😊

I like the design on the gold and platinum. I purchased a gold 1/4 ounce and a Platinum 1 oz. I don't understand why Perth Mint keeps such few coins in Australia. The U.S bullion dealers have plenty available while they're scare in Australia.

[@send2georgie_S2G]

Wow congrats on getting the highly desirable gold and platinum dragons! Well done sloweunner. I dun collect the platinum but will definitely look into adding some gold dragons to my collection.

Nice Review Send. I bought 2 for my Vietnamese friend. It is his Birth Sign I'm not specifically fussed with the design, i still think that they have done a nicly detailed design I was surpirsed when i was looking to buy them that the design of the Gold coins is different. Persoanlly i like the Gold coin design a bit better, but thats the only format that it comes in. Have you seen the coloured silver coin? What do you think of that?

[@send2georgie_S2G]

Yes! the design of the gold Lunars are very different from the silvers. I believe all the previous gold issues have depiction of a single lunar animal and this new gold Dragon is the same. A much nicer coin than the silvers, thats for sure. Cheers and keep stacking ‘em dragons buddy 🐉✌🏻

Cheers Peter J 🤪🐉😊👍

[@send2georgie_S2G]

No worries Peter, this was fun video to create. Lost to talk about and I was happy I could share my two Lunar sets. The Lunar series II was certainly a challenge to complete (some of the coins are really expensive) but, I was happy I could compare the older 2012 with this new 2024. And as I mentioned in the video, the 2012 Dragon is definitely the better looking coin. Cheers and keep stacking ‘em dragons! 🐉

The silver dragon looks great in colour but the design is totally lost on the bullion coin. The design relies too heavily on colour for body parts separation and in the absence of colour the eyes struggle to work out what's going on. I was super excited to get a 1kg version ..until I saw the design. The gold dragon was exactly what I expected the silver one to look like.

It’s unfortunate we didn’t get a better design but for those of us collecting the silver lunars, its still exciting to add another coin to the collection.

The Perth Mint is the only release I have found and I have not purchased as I like to find the design that I like the most. I really am not in love with this design...The orientation of the legs is odd. I would love to see the dragon as told in the lunar story where he is not first as he stoped to help some villagers. I think this shows the luck, prosperity, and charity that can be associated with the dragon.

The new Chinese Myths & Legends Series debuts in 2021 with the image of the Chinese dragon. The dragon has featured on countless collections from the Perth Mint in recent years. This new series can trace its roots to the 2017 introduction of the Dragon-and-Phoenix bullion coins. In this new collection, the dragon features on its own on the reverse. Queen Elizabeth II is on the obverse of 2021 Australian Silver Chinese Myths & Legends Dragon Coins. This sixth-generation effigy of the Queen was created by Jody Clark for the Royal Mint in 2015 and debuted on Perth Mint coinage in 2018. It is now the primary effigy of the Queen in use on Australian coinage and depicts the monarch at the age of 89. A Chinese dragon is featured within its celestial realm on the reverse side of the 2021 1 oz Chinese Myths & Legends Dragon Coin. The Chinese dragon is also depicted as a serpent-like beast. In Chinese mythology, the beasts are associated with the clouds as the celestial world is considered the home of the dragon.

I love Lunar series 1. Simple and elegant. Series 2 are kinda OK. Dragon, Tiger, Snakes, Horse and Rooster were great. Lunar Series 3 was meh all around. I was exited for the 2024 Lunar Dragon, but as soon as I saw both the silver and gold designs I was very disappointed. I didn't even get one. The gold dragon is worse in my opinion. It looked like a short-legged comical dragon running. Not a majestic mystical animal soaring in the sky. But I love the Dragon and Koi design. I got 30 of the plain and 20 of the green. The green Dragon and Koi coloring will change its hue when you move it around in the light.

Yes I agree, the Lunar I’s were the best. But would love to have a set but premiums are just to high. I started with the Lunar II’s with the Rooster.

Hiya safe. Thanks for watching and sharing your comment. Appreciate you highlighting my error. Now that I look at it, certainly looks like water LOL! Cheers and keep stacking ‘em dragons! 🐉✌🏻

In my opinion the 2024 Samoa Year of the Dragon coin looks much better.

[@send2georgie_S2G]

Hiya SolemnS! I haven’t added the Samoa Dragon to my collection but its good to know the design is much appreciated by collectors. Certainly is a beautiful coin! Congrats on having this gorgeous Dragon added to your stack. Cheers and keep stackin’em Dragons 🐉 ✌🏻

Personally I think it's hard to work out that it's even a dragon. Not a coin on my shopping list.

[@andrewhigginbottom6525]

I totally agree on the bullion coin, have you seen the colour version? Once I did, I understand. It's a great design for colour but gets totally lost when not in colour.

[@send2georgie_S2G]

You got that right Cyber. Took me awhile to make out the dragon in the design. Definitely something PM could have done better. Glad you enjoyed the presentation though, and do keep a lookout for my upcoming 2k subs giveaway. Cheers 🐉✌🏻

[@send2georgie_S2G]

@andrewhigginbottom6625 I will be sure to take a look at the colored Dragon! Cheers and keep stacking ‘em dragons.

[@andrewhigginbottom6525]

@@send2georgie_S2G What do you think of the coloured version? I feel its a great choice of colours.

[@send2georgie_S2G]

@@andrewhigginbottom6525 hiya andrew. The colour Lunars are nice but I already collect the bullion so didn’t want to get into another subset of the series. But I have seen an entire set of coloured lunars, those are gorgeous for sure ✌🏻😊

300,000 sold out, add the privy 30,000 also out of stock. Dont think your opinion matters.

True. Thanks for sharing ✌🏻😊

這枚是正龍，龍吐珠~ 意喻象徵著財富和好運。這是伯斯幣廠的中國生肖系列第五年，也是最棒的設計。老外不懂中國文化～龍代表皇帝，是唯一。

Hello Micheal. Thanks for watching and sharing your awesome comment. Appreciate the sharing of information regarding the Dragon design. Unfortunately my understanding of the Lunar symbols is severely lacking so much brush up on the subject. Do continue to share your comments in my videos. Any information or suggestions are valued. Cheers and Happy Chinese Lunar New Year 🧧😊

[@rboey]

Its not a flame. Its meant to be water.

[@send2georgie_S2G]

Got it rboey, thanks for highlighting! 👍🏻👍🏻😊✌🏻

[@rboey]

I didn't like the photo of the dragon. It has grown on me a little but nothing spectacular. I have however had some lucky days winning money since getting the coins so maybe 2024 will be good. I love the Gold design very much but the coin is too small.

[@send2georgie_S2G]

Hiya rboey. Congrats on your recent windfall, looks like the Dragon brought you some good karma. Appreciate you sharing your thoughts and supporting the channel. Cheers and keep stackin’em Dragons! 🐉✌🏻

Maybe he's spitting acid. Great addition to your awesome collection.🤮😆

[@send2georgie_S2G]

LOL well anything is possible Nick. This is certainly not the best from PM. I thought the dragon was spewing flames, but several viewers pointed out its water (for the water dragon). Cheers and keep stacking ‘em dragons 🐉✌🏻

[@BlackSwansFine-co6cd]

The Lunar silver dragon doesn't match the set and looks totally out of place compared to the others. They ruined the theme IMO, I'm selling the rest of my lunars.

[@send2georgie_S2G]

Dang BlackSwan, that’s kinda drastic decision! Perth Mint is gonna be sad if they read your comment. They have commented on my vids before so hopefully they will see this video and take the feedbacks positively. Cheers buddy ✌🏻😊

[@AustrianStacker]

🤮 🐉 Definitely not my favorite dragon coin. Have a great day Georgie!

[@send2georgie_S2G]

Hiya AS. Thanks for watching and commenting. Glad you liked the presentation and couldn’t agree more about this particular Dragon. Cheers and keep stacking ‘em dragons! ✌🏻😊

[@joannanoel4757]

It looks like a ragworm......

[@send2georgie_S2G]

LOL thats a new one! Agree Joanna, the Perth Mint could have done a better job with the design. Appreciate you watching and commenting. Cheers and keep stacking ✌🏻😊

[@tomtharos4440]

I have it in hand. It’s a definite MEH.

[@send2georgie_S2G]

Yeah Tom, PM certainly could have done better. That being said, the Dragon certainly does look better in the hands than on images. Appreciate you watching and supporting the channel. Cheers and keep stackin’em Dragons 🐉 ✌🏻

[@tomtharos4440]

@@send2georgie_S2G In silver, side by side I like the Scottsdale Mint Samoa coin and Golden State Mint dragon rounds better. Especially when considering the premium for the Perth coin.

@@tomtharos4440 both very nice designs, I do like the GSM Dragon! You must have quite the collection, well done tom 👍🏻👍🏻😊✌🏻

[@steventan2533]

I agree. The design is ugly i dont like it very much. I can say that desain is stupid. Not consistent. Very bad design

[@send2georgie_S2G]

Hiya steven. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts about the Dragon. There are mixed reviews from viewers of the channel but many, like you, seem to not favour this design. Hopefully the next Lunar will be better. Cheers and Happy CNY 🧧✌🏻

[@SilverDragoon]

Thanks for sharing this dragon coin, even though I like dragons design coins, but this design is sadly a bit underwhelming in my opinion 🥲

[@send2georgie_S2G]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels the same way. Definitely a missed by the Perth Mint. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel Dragoon. Cheers and keep on stacking ‘em dragons 🐉✌🏻
