With richly symbolic artistry displayed in beautifully executed color, this 1oz silver coin will have special meaning to all those captivated by the legendary Chinese phoenix.
An ancient symbol of honesty, benevolence and knowledge, the mythical phoenix’s rare appearances were believed to herald forthcoming happiness, harmony and prosperity. An immortal creature, it is traditionally portrayed as a fusion of several other birds – including the head of a pheasant, the body of a mandarin duck, the tail of a peacock, the beak of a parrot and the wings of a swallow.
The coin’s fabulous colored artistry portrays a phoenix in customary fashion with features from a range of different birds. In its beak is the flower of a paulownia tree, said to be the only species on which the phoenix will perch. Also included in the design are stylized representations of clouds, symbols of abundance and good fortune, and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.
