This adorable coin celebrates the Year of the Dragon and is the perfect gift for any baby born in 2024. According to the lunar calendar, the Year of the Dragon occurs between 10 February 2024 and 28 January 2025. Babies born during this time are said to be blessed with the dragon’s instinctive bravery, persistence, intelligence, and good fortune.

The ancient lunar zodiac comprises 12 animal signs, each said to bestow desirable characteristics on those born under its influence. According to tradition, dragon babies will likely be blessed with bravery, persistence, intelligence, and good fortune.

Cute baby dragon design.

This coin portrays the official Queen Elizabeth II Memorial Obverse, featuring the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy supplemented with the dates of Her Majesty’s reign – ‘1952 – 2022’.

Lady Bugs have been symbols of luck for over 1000 years! Legend says that the lady bug first gained its “Lucky” status when it kept landing on a man’s neck that was sentenced to be executed by the French guillotine. The man proclaimed his innocence and the Lady Bug kept landing on his neck to distract the executioner. It was seen as a divine intervention and spared the man’s life and later he was proven innocent.

The Lady Bug’s legend grew as European farmers prayed for help from pesky insects and Lady Bugs arrived shortly after. They were named after Virgin Mary and have since been a blessing for generations! Many tales about their famous spots have arisen as a way to tell their age or how many years of good luck you will have.

This wonderful 1 oz silver Proof will surely be a good luck token for you! Never before has a Lady Bug been brought onto a coin in such a beautiful way.
