Following is some additional information on this coin from the Perth Mint:
The Perth Mint is excited to announce the second in the
Mythical Creatures Two Troy Ounce Antique Finish Piedfort
series, the legendary Phoenix! A dynamic mythical Phoenix
guards its sacred flower (inscribed with the Chinese character for "phoenix") with its fabulous plumage on full display. There are no legends on the obverse, to further enhance beauty and heighten the drama of the Phoenix vignette! This extraordinarily low mintage two troy ounce pure silver beauty (mintage only 1,000)
will undoubtedly sell out, and quickly!
This pure silver
gem is struck in ultra high, medallic relief
on an extra-thick planchet (it is a piedfort
) with an antiqued proof finish. Between the extremely popular Chinese motifs, beautiful design and limited mintage, heed our advice - stock up and get one (or more) of these stunning, 2 troy ounce, pure silver
proofs while you can!
The Mythical Phoenix
In Chinese culture the mythological phoenix
is regarded as an immortal bird whose rare appearance foreshadows armony at the ascent to the throne of a new emperor. Representing virtue and grace, the phoenix is said to be symbolic of yin and yang, and the image of this sacred bird is often seen at weddings and royal events alongside a dragon.
In Feng Shui, the dragon and the phoenix
are considered perfect matches for one another. The phoenix is ‘yin’ while the dragon is ‘yang’ in the Chinese philosophical account of natural balance and interdependence.
