2013 Australia 1/2 oz Gold Lunar Snake BU (Series II)
The year 2013 marked a celebration of the lunar calendar with a beautifully crafted gold coin from Australia. Struck in a half ounce of highly refined 0.9999 fine gold, this fifty-dollar denomination piece showcases the exceptional artistry of the Perth Mint. The coin is a legal tender issue, fully supported by the Australian government, and represents a key entry in the popular Lunar Series II collection. On the reverse side, a detailed serpent is depicted winding through a natural setting of grass and bamboo stalks. This side also features the traditional Chinese character representing the snake, the English phrase "Year of the Snake," and the distinctive "P" mint mark signifying its origin at the Perth Mint. The obverse of the coin displays the elegant profile of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Ian Rank-Broadley. Surrounding the portrait are the inscriptions indicating the monarch's name, the issuing country, the year 2013, the gold purity and weight, and the face value of 50 Dollars.
