The 100 Gram Scottsdale Lunar Dragon Silver Bar commemorates the 2024 Year of the Dragon, and specifically the Year of the Wood Dragon, a combination of zodiac animal and element that occurs only once every 60 years. Struck by Scottsdale Mint in 100 grams (3.2151 troy oz) of .999 fine silver, this bar is cast with a textured finish on the obverse, featuring a powerful Chinese dragon in right-profile relief alongside a unique individual serial number, making every bar both a piece of investment-grade silver and a one-of-a-kind collectible tied to its specific serial.
IRA eligible: this bar meets IRS purity requirements (.999 fine silver) for inclusion in a Precious Metals Self-Directed IRA. Contact BOLD's IRA team for custodian setup details.
Melt value: at 3.2151 troy oz of .999 fine silver, melt value calculation is current silver spot price × 3.2151.
In the Chinese Lunar Calendar, the Dragon is the fifth animal in the 12-year zodiac cycle, following the Rat, Ox, Tiger, and Rabbit, and is unique among all twelve signs as the only mythical creature in the zodiac. Every other animal from Rat through Pig represents a real creature; only the Dragon occupies the realm of legend. That distinction is precisely why Dragon years carry such elevated cultural significance, and why Dragon-themed bullion consistently generates the strongest collector and investor demand of any zodiac year.
The Dragon recurs every 12 years, 2024, 2012, 2000, 1988, and in Chinese tradition symbolises prosperity, power, wisdom, and positive energy.
The Chinese Zodiac's 12-year animal cycle is layered with a 5-element cycle, Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water, each element pairing with two consecutive zodiac years before advancing. This produces 60 unique animal-element combinations before the full cycle repeats.
2024 is specifically the Year of the Wood Dragon (木龍), a combination that last occurred in 1964 and will not occur again until 2084. The Wood element is associated with growth, creativity, renewal, and new beginnings, combining with the Dragon's inherent power and ambition to make 2024 an especially significant year in Chinese astrological tradition. This bar's design commemorates this once-in-60-years occurrence specifically, not simply "a Dragon year" in the generic sense.
The Chinese Lunar Calendar harmonizes lunar and solar movements, using lunar months to define calendar months while incorporating solar years to keep the calendar synchronised with the seasons. This lunisolar system has been refined over centuries into one of the most enduring timekeeping traditions in the world, and remains in active cultural use for determining holidays (including Lunar New Year), zodiac years, and traditional ceremonies across China and the broader Chinese diaspora.
The obverse is cast with a textured finish, featuring a majestic Chinese dragon depicted in powerful right-profile relief, the serpentine form rendered with the depth and character that the cast (poured) production process allows. The field carries inscriptions detailing the date, weight, metal content, purity, and the bar's unique serial number.
Because this bar is cast rather than minted from rolled sheet silver, each bar carries its own subtle individuality in surface texture, a characteristic of genuine cast silver production, not a flaw.
The reverse is left blank, showing the natural texture and subtle striations that result directly from the silver-pouring process. This intentionally unadorned surface lets the bar's material character speak for itself, the beauty of poured .999 fine silver, undisguised.
Each bar carries a unique individual serial number stamped into the obverse, providing a layer of individual identification and authentication beyond the Scottsdale Mint hallmark alone. For collectors, this means each 100g Lunar Dragon bar is traceable as a distinct piece, not simply one of an undifferentiated mass.
Scottsdale Mint is a private mint based in Scottsdale, Arizona, recognised for clean lines, smooth surfaces, and meticulous attention to detail across its silver and gold bar lineups. Beyond aesthetics, Scottsdale's bar formats are designed for practical handling and secure storage, a consideration that matters for a 100 gram bar intended for long-term holding.
2024 carries additional significance for Scottsdale Mint: it marks the company's 125th anniversary milestone, commemorated with the "P125" mark across several 2024 Scottsdale releases. This Lunar Dragon bar therefore arrives during a notable year in the mint's own institutional history, alongside its significance in the Chinese zodiac calendar.
