Rectangular Dragon-Perth Minth-2020 question

Who knows maybe it won't be a dragon at all! Maybe a phoenix or tiger. That would be inline with perth mint designs they done in the past.

I hadn't even thought about this even though I also collect the Dragon & ... series from Perth Mint.

You have a point. Next bar might as well not be a dragon, but one of the other celestial Feng Shui animals like the White Tiger, Red Phoenix or Black Tortoise.

Now I'm even more impatient about the 2020 design.

I'm still not seeing anything from the Perth mint regarding a new 2020 version 😢

Hi! This should it be:

2020 Rectangle Dragon – 1oz Silver Bullion Coin

The design of the 2020 Rectangle Dragon silver bullion coin consists of stylised representations of two dragons encircling a flaming pearl. The design includes the following inscriptions: the initials of the designer Neil Hollis “NH”; the letter “P” and a microscopic letter “P”.

The obverse side of the coin bears an effigy of Queen Elizabeth II as designed by Jody Clark.

So this year it will be 2 dragons instead of 1 (and no tiger or so). No idea when it will be releases however.

Encircling on a rectangle. Strange decision because they already have done that in 2019 on the round coin.

Any news one the gold one?

[StevenDS]

We know already that the next rectangle dragon 1 oz coinbars will be double dragon.

See below screenshot. Will they start with the proof version? The online catalog for these releases doesn't show an image yet. I'm watching LPM and Apmex 'new arrivals' section.

2020 Next Generation is a Kookaburra. The description sounds really good.

Wait, you mean there will be no dragon bar?:(

Never was a bar... Always a coin 

[Platinum]

Yeye but you get the drift, a bar-sized coin. The question still stands.

Why wouldn't there not be one. Scroll up to the post of 'Wouter06'.

My post is hinting although the word 'rectangular' is not being used that this could be the one we are waiting for. Even though it for now would only be a proof version.

I read that post. What I reacted to was Sir Hiss. 😊

His post doesn't seem related to this rectangular dragon thread.

Just a reaction to reading the Perth Mint legislation on all their different coins.

2020 Double dragon should be pretty cool. 

[StevenDS]

Should anyone following this thread be interested in acquiring more 2018 and 2019 coins. Here is the link to my sales thread.

And here is the design! 😀 A bit “busy” in my opinion. But I like it!

[Spanishsilver]

That’s gonna look great in gold 

[firestacker]

Finally! I've been waiting for it to come out. I almost thought they gave up on the series.

They should add reeded edges.

They should make a 10 oz version of this.

[AgCoyote]

Looks amazing. It's my favorite of the series so far.

Where did you find it? A presale from a bullion dealer or via Perth Mint site. I can't find it.

Hi! I found it here (after reading about it on the German forum). It took me a while to find it however since I had to use the German word for “dragon”.

 

[firestacker]

So has anyone found this available to buy online at all that can deliver to the UK? 

With the price of silver basically hitting rock bottom, I'm not sure it even matters that I'd need to pay 20% VAT on some sites 😅

It has also been removed from the PS-coins site.

[StevenDS]

It is now online in the LPM website.
