Lunar Series III has reached its midpoint with Perth Mint introducing its new Year of the Snake designs in 2025. The 2025 Lunar Series III issue is notable as Perth Mint transitions from Jody Clark’s effigy of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse to Dan Thorne’s first-generation bust of King Charles III on the obverse of the coins. Right now, 2025 1/2 oz Australian Silver Lunar Snake Coins are available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each 2025 1/2 oz Australian Silver Lunar Snake Coin is available here in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. The 1/2 oz Silver Lunar Snake Coin has an unlimited mintage, with Perth Mint set to strike the coins to meet demand until the next release in the series is available. The coins are individually packaged in plastic capsules, offered in sealed rolls of 20 coins, or in boxes of 100 coins with five rolls inside.
The Chinese zodiac, or Shengxiao, is a repeating 12-year cycle of animal signs and their ascribed attributes. Among these 12 animals is the snake, which is the sixth sign in the zodiac calendar. The Year of the Snake occurs every 12 years, with the most recent being 2013 and the next coming in 2025.
His Majesty King Charles III is featured on the obverse of 2025 Australian Silver Lunar Snakes. This is Charles III’s debut in the Lunar Series program and this left-profile relief was created by Dan Thorne. Perth Mint, like other issuers around the Commonwealth, features Charles III without a crown on his head.
A coiled snake is shown on the reverse of 2025 1/2 oz Silver Lunar Snake Coins. This year’s silver design comes from Sean Rogers and features a snake that is coiled beneath the overhanging branches and leaves of shrubbery. In the background, you can see a body of water with mountains on the horizon.
