As the Year of the Dragon continues in 2024, mints are already looking ahead to the next animal in the 12-year Chinese zodiac cycle the Snake. One of the early 2025-dated releases celebrating the Year of the Snake is the stunning 2025 Proof Solomon Islands Mother of Pearl Year of the Snake 5 oz Silver Coin, now available from Provident Metals.
Highlights:
These 2025 Proof Solomon Islands Mother of Pearl Year of the Snake 5 oz Silver Coins showcase exceptional proof finishes, with intricate frosted elements set against gleaming mirrored backgrounds. Each 5 oz silver piece is encapsulated in a vibrant presentation case, complete with a Certificate of Authenticity. The showstopping reverse features an oval Mother of Pearl inlay.
Obverse
The obverse of the 2025 Proof Solomon Islands Mother of Pearl Year of the Snake Silver Coin bears the elegant left-profile portrait of His Majesty King Charles III, skillfully rendered by sculptor Dan Thorne for the Perth Mint. This regal effigy graces various coin programs from nations across the South Pacific. Inscriptions read CHARLES III, SOLOMON ISLANDS, 5 OZ, $25, and AG 999.
Reverse
The reverse of 2025 Proof Mother of Pearl Year of the Snake 5 oz Silver Coins design is truly captivating, featuring a coiled snake delicately displayed within the shimmering oval Mother of Pearl inlay. Mother of Pearl, also known as nacre, is the iridescent inner layer that lines certain mollusk shells such as those of oysters and abalones. Prized for its lustrous beauty, this durable material finds use in jewelry, inlay work, and decorative arts. Inscriptions include YEAR OF THE SNAKE and 2025.
History
In Chinese culture, the Snake is often associated with wisdom and mystique. It is revered as a symbol of healing and transformation, partly due to its ability to shed its skin. This process symbolizes renewal and regeneration, which are important themes in Chinese philosophy and medicine.
