12 Days Of Christmas
After sharing number 1 on my silver wish list yesterday, today I'm back to share another one I found early in my search for 12 items. So far I managed to collect 6 coins on my wish list, some are reasonably priced (such as the one yesterday) while others (such as today) are expensive and probably out of my league as well, lol. That doesn't mean that I will not share this amazing piece that I found as I'd be thrilled to receive this gift. I bet you would love it too!
Chinese Dragon & Phoenix - The Eternal Bond 2021
Today I want to share not one but two coins in one, they are both beautiful if you ask me and I love every bit of the artwork. In total this is a 4 oz coin, coming in a nice box and the size is 60x80 mm. Check it out:
CHINESE DRAGON – SPECIFICATIONS
Mintage: 500 pcs
Material: 999 Ag & 999 Cu
Weight: 2 oz Ag & 5.75 oz Cu
Finish: Antiqued High Relief
Diameter: 60 x 80 mm
Country: Republique du Tchad
Year of Issue: 2021
Face Value: 10000 Francs CFA
CHINESE PHOENIX – SPECIFICATIONS
Mintage: 500 pcs
Material: 999 Ag & 999 Cu
Weight: 2 oz Ag & 5.75 oz Cu
Finish: Antiqued High Relief
Diameter: 60 x 80 mm
Country: Republique du Tchad
Year of Issue: 2021
Face Value: 10000 Francs CFA
Of course I want to show you the video that made me want this one even more as well. The price is a little more than 690 USD and with that it's probably one many will never buy. But what if Santa has some spare cash and delivers it on Christmas?
As I could not have worded the description of the coin anymore beautiful than the one I found below the Youtube video, I'm going to quote what it says there:
The Dragon and Phoenix are represented as the perfect couple in Chinese Feng Shui, an ultimate pair of ‘Yang’ and ‘Yin’ that symbolise everlasting love and harmony in relationships. This piece is a combination of two individual pieces that shine on their own yet merges together seamlessly to complete an elevated work of art. The individual, teardrop shaped pieces of the Dragon and Phoenix are cut with extreme precision and accuracy in accordance to their Yang and Yin symbols, and the swirls flush together smoothly to form a single, unified circle - truly befitting to its meaning of an eternal bond.Source
As I also have the dragon and phoenix from the myths and legends collection, I would not mind having such a coin in my collection, maybe there's one available that is not 4oz in total and a little more affordable. If you have any tips for that, leave them in a comment below please!
This was my second share for the 12 days of Christmas, I hope to see you again tomorrow..
