✨ Design & Symbolism
The reverse showcases a dramatic encounter between two legendary creatures:
🐉 The Dragon – symbol of authority, strength, and good fortune
🦄 The Qilin – a mythical guardian representing peace, prosperity, and protection
Both figures are intricately rendered in rich colour against an antiqued silver finish, surrounded by swirling stylised clouds. At the centre lies the Bagua, a powerful Taoist symbol representing yin and yang, balance, and universal harmony—adding deep philosophical meaning to the design.
The obverse features the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, together with the year-date, weight, purity, and legal tender denomination, confirming its official status.
