It looks like it is a once-off design.

Much prefer the original. Though I'd love to see a high quality image of it. I had a quick look on the Royal Mint site but it only displays low quality resolution.

Quite a striking design at first glance - but strange quality on closer inspection given the available pics. Probably awesome in the hand!

Is it just me or the Queen's nostril is so well defined?

I think I like the RCM version better.

Beautiful one-off reinterpretation that fits the coin perfectly, imo. Wish they'd do more like this as it's such a potent symbol and while Pistrucci's classic design is excellent, it's so common now the impact has been lost.

The dragon doesn't look real to me.

I found this old Dragon this morning in the bottom of the safe.
Pretty low mintage and only .925 silver.

I'll pass....the dragon is a design fail in my view.

It could pass as a geriatric seahorse in a long sleeve gown as well. :lol:

Looks fantastic. I'd have one if the price wasn't so ridiculous as per usual with RM.

Dragon it's showing its johnson to St. George.

I'll pass too... don't like this design.
