Gonggong (共工), The Wrathful Water Deity

Gonggong, the ancient Chinese God of Water, stands as a figure of untamed force and chaotic power in Chinese mythology. Known for serpent-like body, and an iron forehead, Gonggong was feared for his destructive influence over water. As the direct adversary to Zhu Rong, the God of Fire, Gonggong’s myth is marked by battles that shook heaven and earth, symbolizing the duality and balance of elemental forces.

 

The reverse of this 2 oz silver coin vividly depicts Gonggong commanding the seas, surrounded by colossal waves as he conjures a destructive whirlpool. His formidable companion, Xiangliu—the nine-headed serpent beast—joins the scene, symbolizing chaos and emphasizing the theme of water. Gonggong’s astrological connection to the dwarf planet bearing his name adds a cosmic dimension, with his backdrop capturing the surface of "Gonggong" and his minister Xiangliu symbolized as a moon.

 

On the obverse, the design continues with a dynamic portrayal of Xiangliu in a different form—this time as nine individual serpents, each in an attacking stance. The background of cascading waterfalls and rugged mountains further reflects Gonggong’s command over water and his legendary role as a harbinger of chaos, mirroring the mythological landscapes where he was believed to wreak havoc.

 

Issued by the Republic of Chad in 2025, this 2 oz legal tender .999 fine silver coin measures 45 mm in diameter, finished with an antiqued ultra-high relief. With a face value of 10,000 Francs CFA and limited to just 500 pieces, this collectible captures the mythical might of Gonggong, making it an essential addition for enthusiasts of ancient mythology and celestial artistry.
