The sixth issue of the Royal Australian Mint's new Lunar series was minted from one ounce of 99.9% silver and is dedicated to the Year of the Snake. The snake is the sixth animal in the Chinese zodiac calendar. The sixth issue in the Lunar Series, which spans 12 years, features a detailed image of a snake. It is surrounded by bamboo, which is traditionally regarded as a symbol of integrity. The motive is complemented by the Chinese character for “snake”, as well as the mintmark “YEAR OF THE SNAKE” and details of the coin's fineness and weight. The reverse shows the lunar calendar wheel with all 12 animals and in the center the Dan Thorne portrait of King Charles III as well as the denomination and the year of issue.

Snakes have excellent control over their body movements and behaviour. This self-control is a remarkable character trait that sets them apart from many other animals. Overall, snakes are complex and contradictory animals whose character traits can be interpreted differently depending on context and perspective. Their fascinating nature makes them an enduring object of fascination and respect in many cultures around the world. Those born under the sign of the Chinese Lunar Snake are considered ambitious, successful, intelligent, independent and charismatic. The limited Year of the Snake premium silver bullion coin is delivered in a protective capsule.
