The coin’s reverse incorporates a circular panel featuring a sinuous dragon detailed in pure Australian opal. Struck elements include intricate patterning with stylised depictions of hyacinths, said to be lucky flowers for those born in the Year of the Dragon.

The design includes the inscription YEAR OF THE DRAGON, the 2024 year-date and The Perth Mint’s ‘P125’ Mintmark signifying The Perth Mint's 125th Anniversary. The coin’s obverse features the Jody Clark Memorial Obvers of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II within a stylised pattern with the dates of her reign '1952-2022', and the monetary denomination.

The coin is presented in a prestigious display case with a light, which turns on as you open the lid, shining down and showcasing the stunning colours of the opal insert.
