Product details
The Snake, the sixth sign of the twelve-year lunar calendar, symbolizes wisdom and intuition in Chinese culture. Its ability to metamorphose, represented by shedding its skin, makes it an inspiring role model for personal development. In 2025, which is characterized by the element of Wood, there is an opportunity to shed old habits and promote new growth. The Snake reminds us that change is a natural constant of life. This gold coin in proof condition has been minted from 15.43 g of 999.9% gold. The proof finish (PP) is particularly sought after by collectors and is one of the most elaborate manufacturing processes for a coin. It is strictly limited to an edition of 1888 pieces. The design side of the coin features a golden snake winding around a tree covered in blossoms. The snake is intricately designed and displays a pattern of flowers on its skin. In the background, there is a square with Chinese characters representing the year and the zodiac sign. At the top of the coin, "Canada" is inscribed in large letters, with the year "2025" to its right. The reverse side of the coin features the portrait of British King Charles III, along with the denomination "100 Dollars" and the inscription "Charles III D.G. Rex.".
