A new coin, a capsule, a CoA, a case, a presentation box.
The 2013 Australia 1 Dollar “Year of the Snake” proof silver coin is a refined release from the Perth Mint’s Lunar Calendar Series II. Struck in .999 fine silver with a brilliant proof finish, it honors the Snake, one of the twelve revered animals of the Chinese zodiac.
On the reverse, the coin depicts a gracefully coiled snake, its scales intricately detailed, forming an elegant design framed by a stylized border of flames. To the left appear Chinese characters denoting the Year of the Snake, accompanied by the inscription “1 OZ 999 SILVER.” The composition highlights the reptile’s sinuous form, symbolizing wisdom, mystery, and transformation. The obverse bears the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, encircled with the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “AUSTRALIA,” the year “2013,” “1 DOLLAR,” and the denomination.
This proof edition stands out for its sharp detailing and artistic presentation, making it a prized addition for collectors of lunar zodiac themes and Perth Mint silver issues.
