| Additional information |
The Lucky Dragon series was introduced by the Royal Canadian Mint to capture the substantial Chinese-Canadian collector market, where the dragon carries deep cultural associations with good fortune and prosperity. Each annual release in the series features a different artistic interpretation, making year-to-year variation the primary driver of collector interest rather than any single landmark issue.
At 7.8 grams of .9999 fine gold, the specification mirrors the Royal Canadian Mint's standard quarter-ounce bullion format — a deliberate choice that keeps these pieces liquid in the secondary bullion market even as they are marketed as numismatic issues.
