Appearance of the 2025 Australian Year of the Snake Silver Coin
The design of this one-ounce coin is striking in its detail and elegance. The reverse features a snake slithering across the ground amidst Australian vegetation. Its scales are coated in gold, which adds definition and highlights the significance of this symbol in the Chinese zodiac. The coin’s background is matte, contrasting with the mirror finish and polished elements of the design, giving the whole a sense of depth and a three-dimensional effect. The design is complemented by the Chinese character for "snake." The obverse features a profile of King Charles III, surrounded by information about the coin’s denomination, weight, silver fineness, and year of issue. The coin is struck in proof quality and comes in an elegant case with a transparent lid, allowing it to be displayed without having to be removed.
Historical overview
The coin is part of the prestigious Lunar collector’s series, issued by the Perth Mint since 1996. This series commemorates the Chinese lunar calendar, celebrating the successive years of the lunar zodiac, which includes twelve animals symbolizing various character traits.
