2013 Australia 1 oz Gold Lunar Snake Proof (UHR, Box & COA)
Struck by the Perth Mint, this 2013 Australian sovereign coin showcases the incredible depth of high-relief minting. Crafted from one troy ounce of 0.9999 fine gold, the piece belongs to the celebrated Lunar Series II. It carries a face value of 100 Dollars, backed fully by the Australian government. The reverse side of the coin features a beautifully detailed snake winding its way through blades of grass and shoots of bamboo. This design is accompanied by the Chinese character representing the snake, the English inscription "Year of the Snake", and the traditional "P" mint mark denoting the Perth Mint. On the obverse, the coin displays the classic effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Ian Rank-Broadley. The surrounding inscriptions confirm the issuing country, the year 2013, the denomination, and the weight and purity of the gold. This proof-quality release is exceptionally scarce, with a maximum mintage of only 388 pieces worldwide.
