represents vigour, great felicity and wealth. To celebrate

proudly issued the "Hong Kong Year of the Cockerel Gold
Proof Medals" in limited worldwide edition! Sequels to the
first yellow gold lunar medal series of the HKSAR, these
medals shimmer with the intrinsic nobleness and splendour of
pure yellow gold! Certain to trigger a craze like its

Obverse: A Crowing Cockerel with Dahlia Flowers and Corns to Wish You Great
Fortune
The obverse
depicts a cockerel straightening its neck to crow, which signifies a bright
future and vitality. On its sides are blooming Dahlia flowers and ripe corns, to
denote the blessings of good luck, wealth and prosperity. The words "YEAR OF THE
COCKEREL" in both English and Chinese are inscribed on the top. The year "2017"
at the bottom is flanked by a pair of peony blossoms (the flowers of wealth)
entwined with vines, to beckon wealth and longevity.
Reverse: Spectacular View of the Victoria Harbour Denotes a Thriving Hong Kong
The reverse
bears a gorgeous view of the renowned Victoria Harbour from the Peak, featuring
the two tallest skyscrapers of Hong Kong facing each other across the sea.
Showcasing the splendour of the city as the "Pearl of the Orient" and as an
international metropolis, this breathtaking view indicates the city's progress
into another golden era! Above the skyline is a blossoming Bauhinia, the city's
floral emblem, to symbolize a booming future and, with its five petals to
express "five blessings are knocking at your door"! The outer ring features a
pair of plump wheatears to denote prosperity, with the words "Hong Kong Special
Administrative Region" inscribed in both English and Chinese. |
