2012 1/20 oz Gold Lunar Dragon Australian Perth Mint PCGS MS 69
Captures the power and mystique of the most revered zodiac symbol, the 2012 1/20 oz Gold Lunar Dragon from the Australian Perth Mint is a prized fractional issue from the popular Lunar Series II. Struck from .9999 fine gold, this coin has been certified PCGS MS 69, reflecting excellent preservation and strong visual appeal. Its compact size makes it an accessible entry into gold ownership while retaining the prestige and craftsmanship for which Perth Mint lunar coins are internationally known.
