Each 2025 1 oz Proof Colorized Australian Silver Lunar Snake Coin offered here is housed in a black Perth Mint display. This display case includes a clear, acrylic lid so you can view the coin while on display in the case. The coin arrives in a Lunar Snake-themed shipper with a Certificate of Authenticity included. These coins have unique colorization on the body of the snake in the reverse design. Perth Mint struck 7,500 of these coins, but only 6,000 are available in this presentation packaging.
In Chinese culture, the snake is viewed as a complex symbol. While it can represent cunning and potential danger, it is also revered for its perceived connection to longevity and spiritual power. The dualistic nature of the snake in mythology mirrors the multifaceted personalities often attributed to those born under this sign.
For the obverse of the 2025 Proof Colorized Australian Silver Lunar Snake Coin, you will find a portrait of King Charles III. His Majesty’s first-generation portrait for Australian coins was created by Dan Thorne and it depicts the monarch in left-profile relief without a crown on his head.
In the reverse design of 2025 1 oz Proof Colorized Silver Lunar Snake Coins, Perth Mint features the image of a coiled snake in the foreground. Lush vegetation hangs overhead as a body of water winds off into the distance in the background. The snake’s body has been colorized with haunting yellow eyes and teal scales on its body.
