FOUR LEAF CLOVER DRAGON Gilded 1 Oz Silver Coin 5000 Francs Chad 2023

The coin is shped like a four leaf clover, a talisman for good fortune for the person who holds it, but this luck is delivered by fate alone. At the center of the reverse, a dragon face, with its body twisting all around the rim of the coin. In Chinese culture, luck is the result of wisdom, proper behavior, and a connection with the spiritual life that lies just beneath the mundane. The combination of these two ideas, the Western concept of luck without any control, and the Eastern conception of luck that you make yourself is very effective. The message that you make your own luck is clear throughout the design of this piece and the tiny and effective details make this piece truly unique. The obverse of the coin features a four leaf clover at its center and the dragon body and tail around the rim. The design also incorporates the Coat of Arms of Chad and the inscriptions: "REPUBLIQUE DU TCHAD" – the country of issue, "2023" – the year of issue, "5000 FRANCS CFA" – the face value and "1oz Ag 999" – the weight of the coin and the fineness of the Silver.
