Obverse
The obverse of the 2025 Proof Macau Lunar Snake Silver Coin showcases a depiction of Lilau Square in Macau. Known as Largo do Lilau in Portuguese, the square was historically centered around a natural spring that provided fresh water to early Portuguese settlers in the region. Its name, Lilau, comes from the Portuguese pronunciation of the Chinese characters for “mountain spring.” Inscriptions include LILAU SQUARE, LARGO DO LILAU, and 5 OZ 999 AG.
Reverse
On the reverse of 2025 Proof Lunar Snake 5 oz Silver Coins, an elegant snake winds through the design field. The serpents body is finished in a vivid emerald green colorization inspired by Portuguese tile art, creating a striking visual blend of cultures that makes this coin an artistic treasure. Inscriptions read MACAU, CHINA, 100 PATACAS, and 2025.
History
Throughout Chinese history, the Snake has been a revered symbol of intelligence and adaptability. Years of the Snake have often coincided with remarkable cultural developments. For example, during the Song Dynasty (960-1279 CE), several Snake years saw key advancements in medicine and astronomy, reflecting the Snakes association with progress and transformation.
