  • Description:

    Whenever someone thinks of a snake, rarely are they thinking something positive. The snake isn't a part of the Chinese zodiac calendar because of its charm or attractive stature. The snake represents so much more, in Chinese tradition, that it is considered good luck to see one in your garden! Those born under the Year of the Snake have a personality much different than their zodiac animal. Besides being wise and practicing good communication skills, people under the Year of the Snake are also extremely honest, level-headed, and strong-willed. The Perth Mint connects an ancient fortune-telling calendar with an outstanding coin series. The Australian Lunar Series II not only offers a wide variety of sizes, but it also offers something to look forward to every year.

    The Australian Lunar Series II Gold 2013 1/20 ounce Snake contains .9999 pure gold and is in brilliant uncirculated condition. Protected by its original mint-sealed capsule, the Australian Lunar Series II Gold 2013 1/20 Snake amazes collectors with its high quality and incredible attention to detail. The Perth Mint brilliantly combines the matted finish of a BU coin with the shimmering mirrored finish of a proof coin. The result, of combining these finishes, is a coin that comes to life in your hand! The reverse displays a large snake, suspiciously slithering through reeds and weeds, perhaps locating its next prey. The "Year of the Snake," and the Chinese symbol for "snake" are both etched into that beautifully finished surface. Ian Rank-Broadley's masterpiece of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II is depicted on the obverse. Broadley desired to honor the Queen's aging, instead of ignoring it in his sculpture of the regal monarch. The coin's monetary denomination is also included on the obverse side.
