The Forbidden Phoenix 2 oz .999 silver coin Chad 2022

An immortal bird that symbolizes virtue and grace, the Chinese Phoenix is a mythical creature often seen on auspicious occasions and events. Historically, it used to signify both male and female elements. Over time, the phoenix has been increasingly represented as a female bird paired to the male Chinese Dragon, which is the most commonly recognized phoenix today and also presented here.

The appearance of a Chinese Phoenix is said to represent an auspicious new beginning. In this piece, the mythical animal spreads its wings and talons in an impressive display. Minute lines are carefully engraved to deliver a life-like texture to its feathers that feel extraordinary under one’s fingers. Surrounding the legendary creature are intricate motifs of smaller phoenixes that lay against the mandala pattern.
