The Chinese zodiac is a twelve-year cycle rooted in ancient traditions, with each year represented by a different animal. The Snake holds a special place in this system, symbolizing qualities like wisdom and reflection. For 2025, the Perth Mint includes the Snake in its Lunar Series III collection. Provident Metals now offers the 2025 Colorized Australian Lunar Snake 1/10 oz Gold Coins.
Highlights:
These 2025 Colorized Australian Lunar Snake 1/10 oz Gold Coins are shipped inside clear plastic capsules. They are in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and have color added to the reverse side. The snakes body is highlighted in tones of blue, green, and white to stand out against the coins gold surface.
Obverse
On the obverse of the 2025 Colorized Australian Lunar Snake Gold Coin, you’ll see a portrait of King Charles III. This left-facing image was created by Dan Thorne and shows the King without a crown, in line with the Perth Mints current effigy design. The inscriptions include CHARLES III, AUSTRALIA, 1/10 OZ 9999 AU, and 15 DOLLARS.
Reverse
The reverse of 2025 Colorized Lunar Snake 1/10 oz Gold Coins features a coiled snake resting among bamboo branches. Artist Sean Rogers designed this side, combining natural imagery with the traditional symbolism of the Snake. Its graceful movement and quiet nature represent transformation, strategy, and adaptability in Chinese folklore. Inscriptions here include SNAKE, 2025, the P mint mark, and the symbol for the snake.
History
The Chinese zodiac tradition dates back to the Han Dynasty and reflects ideas drawn from astronomy, nature, and cultural values. As the sixth animal in the cycle, the Snake represents depth, patience, and insight. These traits were observed in the animals behavior and woven into its meaning in the zodiac.
