This is a 1 oz gold bullion coin from Australia's Perth Mint, issued in 2000 as part of the Lunar Series I dragon release. It carries a face value of $100 AUD and is struck in .9999 fine gold, which makes it a collector piece as much as a metal holding. Buyers of the Lunar dragon coins value the detailed dragon engraving and the series' reputation for finish. It suits collectors chasing the first Lunar dragon and buyers who want a recognizable one-ounce gold coin rather than a generic bar.
