CHARLES III TOKELAU 2024 DT FIVE DOLLARS 1OZ .999 SILVER |
| Descripción del reverso |
Two mirrored representations of a coiled Chinese celestial dragon occupy the entire field, divided vertically at centre, with the left dragon rendered in a frosted matte finish and the right dragon in a highly polished mirror finish, creating a dramatic contrasting effect characteristic of the coin's mirror design concept. Both dragons are depicted in sinuous, coiling postures with finely detailed scales, claws, and flame embellishments, facing each other symmetrically across the central axis. The legend YEAR OF THE DRAGON arcs along the upper portion of the field, and the date 2024 is inscribed at the bottom centre below the dragons. |

The Mirror Dragon series from Tokelau uses proof surfaces specifically engineered to create depth-of-field illusions between the frosted device and the polished field — a technique that demands dies be replaced far more frequently than in standard proof production, keeping mintages deliberately low. Tokelau itself has no mint; all coinage is produced under contract, with this issue almost certainly struck by the New Zealand Mint in Auckland.
