| Additional information |
China's annual lunar gold bullion series has run without interruption since 1981, making it one of the longest continuously issued commemorative programs of its kind. The 3g denomination sits at the entry point of the series by weight, introduced to broaden accessibility as gold prices climbed through the 2010s. The Dragon year issues consistently command the strongest secondary market premiums within the twelve-year cycle — a pattern documented across multiple rotations and attributed to both domestic demand and the coin's cultural significance in Chinese-speaking markets worldwide.
