2017'Dragon' Colorized Proof $25 Silver Coin 1oz. 9999 Fine (18109) (NT)

Born on the rivers of China, dragon boat racing is at the heart of a 2,000-year-old cultural tradition that is steeped in folklore, and full of colourful pageantry. Ultra-high relief engraving brings the Chinese dragon to life on the reverse, which represents a stunning visual celebration of the annual Dragon Boat Festival celebrated worldwideincluding several cities across Canada! The reverse design by Canadian artist Simon Ng offers an artistic tribute to Dragon Boat Festival through the skilful fusion of ancient symbolism, traditional art elements and modern minting techniques. The lower portion of the coin is dominated by foam-tipped wavesan auspicious pattern that also adds a sense of motion to the design. In fact, curved lines are present throughout this water-themed design, including the dragons mane that evokes the sensation of wind and movement. Engraved in ultra-high relief for added depth and dimension, the serpentine spirit emerges from the water in a way that mimics the shape of a dragon boat, with its neck curved like a boats gunwale. The dragons features are resplendent in colourful hues of red, gold, green and blue, culminating in the blue pearl held tight in its jaw as a symbol of wisdom, and the active yang aspect of qithe life force that surrounds us. The reverse includes the engraved year 2017, the word CANADA and the face value, 25 DOLLARS. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. A vibrant celebration of the ancient cultural traditions of Chinese-Canadians, and a creative ode to one of the most adrenaline-pumping competitive sports! TRADITION MEETS TECHNOLOGY: Fittingly for such a powerful mythological symbol, our depiction of a Chinese dragon combines traditional artistic elements, show-stopping colour and exquisite engraving! ULTRA-HIGH RELIEF FOR A MULTI-DIMENSIONAL EFFECT: Struck multiple times to provide unparalleled dimension and depth, the dragons carefully sculptured head appears to rise up from the coins flat surface and the turbulent waves!
