Obverse
The obverse of the 2025 Proof Australian Lunar Snake Gold Coin showcases the inaugural portrait of King Charles III on a Lunar Series coin. This left-profile bust was designed by Dan Thorne and made its first appearance on 2024-dated coins, but its now featured on the Year of the Snake release. The inscriptions read CHARLES III, AUSTRALIA, 1/10 OZ 9999 AU, and 15 DOLLARS.
Reverse
On the reverse of 2025 Proof Lunar Snake 1/10 oz Gold Coins, youll find a detailed depiction of a snake curled among bamboo, designed by Sean Rogers. The intricate design captures the essence of the snake, a symbol of wisdom and strategy in Chinese culture. Inscriptions read SNAKE, 2025, the P mint mark, and the Chinese symbol for the snake.
History
In the Chinese zodiac, the Snake is often associated with a thoughtful and measured approach to life. During a Snake year, there is typically an emphasis on education, planning, and careful decision-making.
