2021 $2 Tuvalu DOUBLE DRAGON N YIN YANG KOI FISH Antiqued 2 Oz Silver Coin.
DESCRIPTION
According to ancient Chinese mythology, a school of golden koi swam up a fast-flowing river full of rocks and other obstacles to reach a legendary mountain waterfall known as The Dragon Gate.
Despite its seemingly impassable height, one koi’s repeated efforts to reach the crest eventually proved successful.
In recognition of its determination and perseverance, the gods turned it into the most auspicious mythical creature in Chinese culture a DRAGON.
The coin’s highly symmetrical design portrays two golden koi in the form of a Yin Yang (or taijitu) symbol encircled by two serpentine-shaped Chinese dragons.
The transformation of the koi into a dragon is symbolised by the interconnection of their coloured whiskers.
Also included in the design is a backdrop of scrolling clouds, which are associated with deities, and lotus flowers, symbols of purity.
