Adding to its collectability, the mintage is limited to just 6,000. As a pure silver coin struck by the Royal Canadian Mint, this item is HST/GST exempt. The reverse design by Canadian artist Simon Ng offers an artistic tribute to Dragon Boat Festival through the skillful fusion of ancient symbolism, traditional art elements and modern minting techniques. The lower portion of the coin is dominated by foam-tipped waves-an 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 dragon’s 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 boat’s gunwale. The dragon’s 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 qi-the 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. 2017 Canada Dragon Boat Festival 1oz Silver Colorized Coin NGC PF 70 UCAM.

In China, the Dragon Boat Festival is known as Duanwu or Tuen Ng Festival, a multi-day celebration that takes place around the fifth day of the fifth month of the Chinese lunar calendar. According to popular legend, the festival commemorates the sacrifice of poet Qu Yuan, who drowned himself in the Miluo River after his homeland capitulated; the holiday is also associated with other legends, including those of Wu Zixu and Cao E. Whether competing at an international level or in a friendly competition at a festival, dragon boat racing draws spectators who marvel at the sight of the brightly decorated boats, which typically have a carved dragon at the fore and a tail-shaped stern.

Dragon boat racing is believed to trace back to an ancient rite during a time of dragon worship, when participants appealed to the mythical spirit to ensure abundant rain for their crops.
