Obverse
On the obverse, the 2025 Australian Platinum Lunar Snake Coin showcases King Charles III in a left-profile relief. This is the first appearance of His Majesty on Lunar Series coins, replacing the previous portraits of Queen Elizabeth II. Designed by Dan Thorne, this image portrays the King without a crown.
Reverse
The reverse design of 2025 1 oz Platinum Lunar Snake Coins, created by Sean Rogers, depicts a snake coiled around bamboo. This detailed design includes bamboo leaves overhead, adding to the natural setting of the snake.
History
The Lunar Series celebrates the 12 animals of the Chinese Zodiac, reflecting their cultural significance. The Year of the Snake, featured here, is part of this rich tradition and symbolizes various traits in Chinese culture.
