What would be a year without a dragon coin?
Dragons are creatures of mythology and regarded in distinct ways in varying cultures.
In Eastern mythology specifically the Chinese, dragons are symbols of good luck and good fortune. To determine the dragon's power and knowledge, all you had to do is find out the number of fingers on their claws. The greatest of all dragons have five claws!
In Western culture the dragons are shown with wings and they breathe fire. The tip of their tail is usually a weapon.
