Tuvalu 2021 $2 Chinese Mythical Creatures Double Dragon & Double Phoenix 2oz Silver Coloured Antiqued Coin

Rich in Chinese cultural references, the coin’s highly symmetrical artistry employs twin dragon and phoenix motifs - in artistic terms doubling the strength of their auspicious influences. These mythical creatures surround the ancient Yin and Yang symbol (taijitu) embodying the feng shui concept that the universe is governed through the balance of opposing yet complementary principles. The design includes stylised clouds, auspicious symbols in China that are associated with rain and abundant harvests, as well as coloured peonies, flowers symbolising royalty, wealth and honour.
