Intelligent snake
Introduced in 1996, the long-running Australian Lunar Coin Series features the 12 animals of the lunar zodiac. This 2025 release celebrates the snake, whose rule over every sixth year in the 12-year lunar cycle is said to bestow intelligence, independence, and charm on people born under its influence.
Gilded design
The coin portrays a snake which has been meticulously gilded in 24-carat gold. Included in the design is the inscription ‘SNAKE 2025’, the Chinese character for ‘Snake’, and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.
H.M. King Charles III effigy
The coin’s obverse bears the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III.

Australian Lunar Series III
Each Australian lunar series from The Perth Mint is based on the 12 animals in the Chinese zodiac. Coin collectors are besotted with each annual release, hence the longevity of the 12-year series.
Established in 1996, The Perth Mint was the first to release an Australian lunar coin program. Due to its success, it is now in its third series.
Made with the fine gold, silver and platinum in combination with intricate craftsmanship, these Australian lunar collector coins explore the ancient tradition and mythical folklore of the Chinese Great Race.
