This coin struck by the Perth Mint is dedicated to the Pixiu - Guardian Lion. The mystical creature from Chinese mythology is a symbol of great happiness, joy and prosperity. Optically it resembles a winged lion and is often depicted with a dragon head. These creatures are characterized by their insatiable appetite for gold, silver and jewels. They have the ability to generate wealth and offer protection against evil spirits. The fact that the Pixiu is usually depicted as a couple is also clear from the motive of this silver coin. It features a Pixiu couple sitting on ancient Chinese coins. The male Pixiu places its paw on a ball, whereas the female one holds a Pixiu cub. The reverse of the coin features the Jody Clark portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the inscriptions "ELIZABETH II", "AUSTRALIA", "1 DOLLAR", "2020" and "1 oz 9999 Ag". This coin is equipped with a security feature. On its reverse there is a micro-laser engraving in the form of a letter, which can only be seen under a magnifying glass. The limited silver bullion coin is delivered in a protective capsule.
