Story

Yin and yang creatures

Perceived in Eastern culture as symbols of yin and yang - opposing yet complementary natural forces - the tiger and dragon have long been portrayed together. According to ancient philosophy, the beasts’ wildly different spirits created a fierce rivalry - and in challenging the dragon’s dominance, the tiger ensured the restoration of balance and harmony in the world.  

Double headed design

Struck in high relief with an antiqued finish, the coin portrays the head of a tiger and the head of a dragon. The indomitable nature of each creature, expressed through their formidable eyes and menacing jaws, embodies the equilibrium of their relationship. The design includes a patterned ring around the animals, within which can be seen The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark. Each coin in the mintage is individually edge numbered from 1 to 200.
