2025 Australia 1 oz Silver Lunar Year of the Snake BU
2025 Australia 1 oz Silver Lunar Year of the Snake BU
The Year of the Snake is celebrated on this brilliant uncirculated silver coin from 2025. Minted by the Royal Australian Mint, an institution that has been operating since 1965, this piece belongs to a popular series dedicated to the twelve animals of the lunar calendar. The snake occupies the seventh position in this traditional cycle, with 2025 specifically representing the wood snake. Production is limited to a maximum of 50,000 pieces. One side of the coin displays a detailed depiction of a snake winding through stalks of bamboo. This reverse side also carries the inscription "YEAR OF THE SNAKE" alongside details of the metal content, showing it contains one ounce of 0.999 fine silver. The opposite side features a central portrait of His Majesty King Charles III, which was designed by Daniel Thorne. Surrounding this modern effigy is an intricate lunar calendar wheel, creating a visual link between the monarch and the ancient zodiac cycle. The inscriptions on this side confirm the face value of "1 DOLLAR", the ruler's name, and the issuing country.
