The King is shown in left-profile without a crown, a formal image created by Dan Thorne for Perth Mint issues. **Reverse** On the reverse, the 2025 Proof Australian Rectangular Silver Dragon Coin presents a Chinese dragon designed by Lucas Bowers. This dragon is shown in a powerful front-facing pose, featuring a long, winding body, scaled skin, four clawed limbs, and stylized horns. The background includes clouds, a common setting in Chinese art that shows the dragons connection to the sky and storms. **History** Symbolism plays a key role in Chinese dragon art. One important detail is the number of claws. Historically, five claws indicated a royal dragon used only by the emperor, while four-clawed dragons represented noble status, and three-clawed dragons were seen in more general decorative use. **Ordering** For help with your silver purchase, call BGASC at 888-992-4272.
