Certified Double Dragon Silver Coin 1 oz Silver 2020P PF70 NGC

The 2020-P Australia $1 Double Dragon Silver Coin is a visually striking release from the Perth Mint, celebrated for its intricate design and cultural symbolism. Struck in 99.99% pure silver, this coin contains 1 troy ounce (31.1 grams) of silver, with a diameter of 40.6 mm and an approximate thickness of 4 mm. Issued with a $1 denomination, this proof coin exhibits a stunning Ultra Cameo finish, with deeply mirrored fields and frosted design elements. This example has been certified a perfect PF70 by NGC and carries the desirable First Releases designation, indicating it was among the earliest coins struck.

The obverse features an elaborate double dragon design, symbolizing strength, prosperity, and power in Chinese culture. Two serpentine dragons coil around a central flaming pearl, a traditional emblem representing wisdom and enlightenment. The level of detail is exceptional, with finely engraved scales, flowing whiskers, and swirling clouds that create a sense of motion and depth. The mirrored background enhances the contrast, allowing the dragons to stand out dramatically against the reflective surface.

The reverse displays the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Jody Clark, surrounded by the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “AUSTRALIA,” “2020,” and the denomination “1 DOLLAR.” Additional inscriptions note the metal content “1 oz 9999 Ag,” confirming its purity and weight. The portrait is rendered in a frosted finish, contrasting elegantly with the polished fields typical of proof coinage.

This coin is highly sought after due to its cultural significance, exceptional artistry, and limited availability in perfect condition. The PF70 Ultra Cameo grade ensures flawless quality, while the First Releases designation adds further appeal for collectors seeking early-strike examples. Combining traditional symbolism with modern minting excellence, the 2020 Double Dragon stands as a standout piece in contemporary silver numismatics.
