1/10 oz Lunar Year of the Snake Gold Coin, 2025
Description
The 1/10 oz Gold Coin Lunar Year of the Snake 2025 by Perth Mint is minted in .9999 pure gold and celebrates the sixth animal of the Chinese lunar zodiac. This coin symbolizes wisdom, intelligence, and independence, traits associated with those born under the Year of the Snake.
According to Chinese mythology, the origin of the zodiac animals comes from a legend known as “The Great Race.” The Jade Emperor, ruler of heaven, summoned all animals to a race, promising a place in the zodiac calendar to the first twelve who arrived. Each animal earned its place in the zodiac based on traits it demonstrated during this mythical race, creating a cultural framework where people born in each animal’s year are thought to embody the animal’s characteristics.
Reverse: Features a beautifully detailed coiled snake beneath hanging leaves, and the inscription 'SNAKE 2025' along with Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark.
Obverse: Bears the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, along with the coin's weight, fineness, and monetary denomination.
