Dragons of Legend is a commissioned series (i.e. a distributor has proposed the designs, commissioned the artwork and received approval for the series release). Working Dogs and a few other series are the same - they are not a Perth Mint Lunar edition coin.
What's irritating to me is when this series was announced there was no mention of the 5oz. They basically just spring it on us. I can only assume there will be different sizes of the next ones in the series. I've only started collecting PM coins this year. Is this normal for the mint to do this?
Indeed. The Perth Mint won't announce the full coin program in advance so you can plan in advance what to buy and what not to buy. It's known that there will be the range of bullion lunars etc but the proof and colourised varieties are drip fed out over the year.
I believe coin club commissioned the legends of dragon series alongside the wildlife in need series also
oh I'm really wanting a Dragon with a privy Dragon coin. That would seriously just make my day and sum up PM 2012 perfectly!
So, no one still know about new Deadly and Dangerous design? Maybe will be another Snake to be in line with new Lunar Year? Alex.
mmm... wonder what colour they are going to release this time... not getting any dragon from PM anymore
