| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse bears the mature effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, as engraved by Susan Taylor, depicting the monarch at 77 years of age with bare head, wearing a necklace and earrings. The legend ELIZABETH II D·G·REGINA arcs along the upper periphery in Latin script. The portrait is rendered in a refined, high-relief style consistent with the fourth definitive effigy used on Canadian coinage from 2003 onward. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Dragon Luck" issue belongs to the Royal Canadian Mint's long-running series of bullion and collector pieces marketed toward Chinese-Canadian communities and export markets in Asia, where demand for dragon-themed silver has sustained a cottage industry among Western mints since the early 2000s. The eight-dollar denomination is not accidental — eight is the most auspicious number in Chinese numerology, associated with wealth and prosperity.
Struck in .9999 fine silver rather than the more common .999, a standard the RCM has maintained on its fine silver collector issues since the 1990s.
