    Lunar Series II coins from the Perth Mint are available with great variety in the design on a yearly basis. The coins are produced in both silver and gold each year, with different versions including bullion, proof, and even gilded silver coins with 24-karat gold layering. Right now, the 2013 1/2 oz Proof Colorized Australian Silver Snake Coin is available from JM Bullion.

    Coin Highlights:

    • Arrives in a brilliant display box with a Certificate of Authenticity.
    • Limited mintage of only 10,000 coins.
    • 6th coin design for Lunar Series II.
    • Honors the Year of the Snake.
    • Contains 1/2 Troy oz of .999 fine silver.
    • Bears a face value of $.50 (AUD) backed by the federal government of Australia.
    • Obverse features Queen Elizabeth II’s effigy.
    • Reverse includes the unique Year of the Snake design.

    This isn’t the first time the snake has featured on a Perth Mint coin, or in the Lunar Series program of coins. The original Lunar Series I coins ran for 12 years and included one new design for each animal in the Zodiac. The snake last appeared on the 2001 release of the Lunar Series I program.

    In this all-new Lunar Series II Year of the Snake release, a brand-new image features on the reverse of the coins. These 1/2 oz Proof Australian Silver Snake Coins are one of two weights available in the Perth Mint’s proof release for the recent Year of the Snake.

    On the reverse of the 2013 1/2 oz Proof Australian Silver Snake Coin you’ll find a colorized image of the Year of the Snake design. The image includes a snake coiled around the branch of a tree, with colorization added that gives the snake a mostly black body with patches of scales in yellow.

    The obverse of all 2013 Year of the Snake coins from the Perth Mint features the right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This design depicts Queen Elizabeth II around the age of 68 years old, and was created in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley.

    Each of these 2013 1/2 oz Proof Colorized Australian Silver Snake Coin in this listing ships to you in a protective, black-and-red Perth Mint box. This provides protection to your purchase and gives the perfect display piece for your product.

    Perth Mint is the oldest operating facility in Australia, and is a state-owned entity of the government of Western Australia. Originally opened in 1899, the Perth Mint now operates independently of the younger Royal Australian Mint, which opened in 1965 as the sovereign mint of the nation.

    My package appears to have been damaged or tampered with. What should I do?+

    We recommend you refuse any shipment that appears to be damaged or tampered with as the shipping insurance ends once signed for and/or delivered. When refused, the package(s) will return to JM Bullion for inspection. If you have taken possession of a damaged or tampered package, please save all packaging and contact JM Bullion at1-800-276-6508 within 48 hours for further instructions. Failure to notify us of damage or tampering within 48 hours fromsignatureor delivery date may impact our ability to cover your claim.

    When will I receive my order?+

    When you will receive your order depends primarily on three factors

    1. When we receive your payment (checks and wires must be initiated/sent by you).
      • Please note that you will receive a Paid email once your payment is received.
    2. Holding period after cleared payment.
      • Depending on your payment method, we will hold the order once payment is received and cleared. The hold periods by payment method are listed in checkout and in your confirmation email. Paper checks take the longest and are held up to five business days after payment clears.
    3. Shipping method and transit time.
      • UPS 3-Day Air is the fastest and most reliable method of shipping. These are usually delivered in 1-3 business days once in transit.
      • USPS is less consistent in both transit time and tracking accuracy.
    What happens if my order is lost in transit?+

    All packages shipped by JM Bullion are covered by insurance subject to certain conditions. In the unlikely event that your order is Lost in Transit, you need to contact us immediately. Lost in Transit is defined for the USPS as tracking not having updated in 5 or more calendar days. For UPS, it is 3 calendar days. You must contact us within 7 days since last tracking for USPS and 3 days since last tracking for UPS. If you do not contact us by these timeframes, insurance will not cover the package.

    Once you contact us, we research the shipment with the carrier and begin the claim process. The claims process can take 30 or more days to resolve, and many Lost in Transit shipments end up getting delivered late. If the package is delivered, you must notify us within 24 hours.

    See also Section 13 of our Terms and Conditions.

    What happens if my order is damaged in transit?+

    Though unlikely, if your order is damaged during transit and/or any items are missing we require you to contact JM Bullion immediately so we can begin the claims process. If you have taken possession of a shipment that is damaged and/or is missing items, you have 2 days (48 hours) from the date of delivery to contact us as stated in our Terms and Conditions.

    Will I need to sign for my package?+

    Orders under $1000 will not require a signature unless that option is selected and paid for at checkout. Orders over $1000 will always require a signature for delivery. Please note, per our Terms and Conditions, once a package shows delivered, our responsibility ends. Please be available and attentive to receive the package when the courier arrives. Due to COVID 19, couriers are not always getting the signature.

    Depending on your method of payment, it is possible to have your order shipped to an address other than your billing address. If you pay with paper check, bank wire, ACH, Ethereum, Ripple, or bitcoin, you may have your order shipped wherever you please, with two exceptionsUPS locations and mail forwarding locations. If you pay with a credit/debit card, it depends on your order history. For credit cards, put the order through with your billing address as the shipping address, and then call us to see if we can change it to an alternate.

    How will I know when my order ships?+

    You may choose how your order is shipped during the checkout process. In the last section of the checkout page, 4 Shipping Method, you will see the available shipping options for your order. If your purchase is eligible for free shipping, the pre-selected option will be base shipping, which is either USPS, UPS, or FedEx at our choice. If you would like to upgrade your shipping, you may choose one of the other options for a small fee. Simply click on the circle next to the shipping method you desire, and your order will be shipped via that method.

    If my order includes an item on presale, will the in-stock items ship first?+

    Unfortunately, due to the way insurance is applied to an order, everything must ship at the same time (i.e., in-stock items must await shipment until all presale items have arrived). Your order will ship in its entirety within 24-72 hours of our receiving the presale item. An email notification will be sent when your order ships.

    Do you ship to US territories?+

    We do not ship to US territories. Due to special requirements set by the postal systems, we are unable to ship outside of U.S. states.

    Where do you ship orders from?+

    All orders will ship from our warehouse in Las Vegas, Nevada. We mask our return address on all packages as to not give away the contents of the package.

    Do you offer UPS or FedEx shipping to Alaska and Hawaii?+

    No, we do not. The costs in shipping to these places is extremely prohibitive, so we utilize USPS on all shipments.
