The origins of the Chinese zodiac date back to the Han Dynasty (202 BCE – 220 CE), though some scholars argue its roots may extend even further into antiquity. The snake, as part of this system, has long been an important symbol in Chinese culture and mythology. In the 12-year cycle of the Zodiac, the snake is the sixth animal.

All 2025 1 oz Australian Silver Lunar Snake Coins offered here come in acrylic capsules. Multiples are encapsulated and offered in sealed rolls of 20 coins or boxes of 100 coins. Each box holds a total of five rolls. All coins in this listing are in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and feature a unique, micro-engraved security mark on the reverse.

On the obverse of 2025 Australian Silver Lunar Snakes is a bust of His Majesty King Charles III. Designed by Dan Thorne, this left-profile relief depicts Charles III without a crown on his head. This is the first time a monarch other than Elizabeth II has featured on the obverse of coins in this series.

The reverse side of the 2025 1 oz Silver Lunar Snake Coins comes with a depiction of a coiled snake. This design offers a view of a lush jungle, with mountains on the horizon and a river snaking through the setting. In the foreground, a coiled snake is shown with its head raised above its body as it sits beneath overhanging branches and leaves.
