With a history that is believed to date back more than 3,000 years, China is one of the world’s oldest civilisations. Deeply rooted with a storied past, it’s no surprise that Chinese culture is full of ancient tradition, rich heritage and mythical folklore.

The perfect example of this is the Chinese zodiac which fully encompasses all three. Established in 2014 with the release of the Year of the Horse coin, The Lunar Collection celebrates the lunar calendar and honours the various animals of the Chinese zodiac.

Continuing this annual tradition into 2025, The Royal Mint is proud to commemorate the sixth symbol in the 12-year cycle as we celebrate the Lunar Year of the Snake.

Those born under this sign are said to share many of the snake’s desirable characteristics such as strength, intelligence and adaptability.

Presented with a traditional red envelope, perfect for giving as a gift. The coin’s packaging artfully reflects the lunar calendar and Chinese culture.
