2025 Year Of The Snake Quadrant 1oz Silver Proof Coloured Four-Coin Set

The Coin Company is proud to present 2025 Year Of The Snake Quadrant 1oz Silver Proof Coloured Four-Coin Set by the Perth Mint.

Celebrate the Year of the Snake with this remarkable release, featuring four legal tender 1oz silver proof coins that fit together to form a circle with a square in the centre, reminiscent of the first currency of the Chinese Empire. These ‘ban liang’ coins were first cast during the Qin Dynasty around 200 BCE.

About the Lunar Snake:

• The Snake holds great significance in traditional Chinese culture as one of the 12 animals that participated in the Emperor’s Great Race, which determined the order of their appearance in the lunar calendar.
• A dominant creature believed to control nature, the snake finished sixth and has since reigned during every sixth year in the 12-year lunar cycle, including 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013, and 2025.
• Those born in the Year of the Snake are considered wise, intelligent, independent, and charming. They are deep thinkers with natural charisma, intuition, and strong problem-solving abilities.

Coin Design:

• Each coin in the set features a panorama of eye-catching, richly coloured artistry.
• The top coin depicts a yellow-coloured snake hanging from a tree in its native forest and shrubland, with the traditional sloped tiers of a pagoda roof in the background.
• The right-hand coin showcases a green-coloured snake coiled among the lush leaves of a rainforest, with a pagoda and rocky waterfall behind it.
• The bottom coin features a blue-coloured snake with distinctive striped markings, coiled on a rocky ledge near a moon bridge.
• The left-hand coin portrays a dramatic purple and red-coloured snake entwined in a tree, watching over a river bridge.

Features:

• The set is accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity.
