To celebrate the Lunar Year of the Snake, the Royal Australian Mint has released this 2025 $1 Uncirculated Two-Coin Set featuring the creative and serene Snake and the Lunar calendar wheel.

The set would be a wonderful traditional gift for Lunar New Year.

The Snake is the sixth of the Twelve signs in the Chinese Zodiac. According to legend twelve animals participated in a race across a river to allow the Jade Emperor to establish the order of the signs of the Chinese horoscope.

After the Dragon had taken fifth place the horse looked to be next in line, but suddenly the snake appeared at the Horse's hooves causing it to jump back in surprise, allowing the snake to cross the line in sixth place.

People born in the Year of the Snake are said to be creative and wise.
