Obverse
On the obverse of the 2025 Australian Gold Lunar Snake Coins, you will see the introduction of King Charles III. This is the first time Charles III has been featured on the Lunar Series III coins. The left-profile bust, created by Dan Thorne, shows the King without a crown, signifying a new chapter in the series.
Reverse
The reverse side of 2025 1/2 oz Gold Lunar Snake Coins highlights a beautifully detailed design by Sean Rogers, featuring a snake coiled around bamboo shoots with leaves hanging overhead. This serene and powerful image represents the characteristics associated with the Year of the Snake in the Zodiac, a year often seen as one of introspection and hidden opportunities.
History
Historically, the significance of Snake years in the Zodiac has fluctuated. Some saw them as periods of great opportunity for spiritual and personal advancement. Others approached these years with care, believing they could bring hidden dangers.
