About
$150 Pure Gold Coin - Blessings of Wealth (2009)
Theme:
Is there a greater blessing than wealth—a wish for prosperity and good fortune. Since time immemorial, this has been one of humanity's great occupations.
In China, blessings of wealth abound in a multitude of ancient symbols and artistic expressions, many of which are beautifully represented on this scalloped coin of puregold.
This coin, designed by Harvey Chan, conveys the wish, "gold and jade fills your house." Goldfish and jade are quintessential symbols of prosperity, a sentiment that is strengthened by the fact thatthe Chinese character for fish (Yú) is pronounced in the same manner as the character for jade. The peony at the centre of the design is another powerful symbol for prosperity and nobility while the auspicious clouds in the background ensure such good fortuneis never-ending.
Highlights: From its scalloped shape to its ancient Chinese art andcharacters, this coin is brimming with intrigue. Its superior purityof 99.999% pure gold is a magnificent—and highly symbolic—composition for expressing this blessing of wealth.
Reverse: Chinese symbols of goodfortune come together in thishighly symbolic design. Three goldfish surround a peony withauspicious clouds of prosperity in the background.
