{{/presale}}The Year of the Water Snake in 2013 marks a time of change and wisdom in Chinese astrology. The Water Snake is one of the five elements connected to the Snake sign, combining the traits of intuition and grace with the fluid nature of water. This creates a unique blend of qualities. Right now, 2013 1/10 oz Australian Lunar Snake Gold Coins are available from BGASC.
Highlights:
Each 2013 1/10 oz Australian Lunar Snake Gold Coin listed here arrives in a protective plastic capsule. The original release included 23,700 coins, making this 1/10 oz version the second-best seller of the year behind only the 1 oz gold coin, which sold out its mintage of 30,000 coins.
Obverse
The obverse side of the 2013 Australian Lunar Snake Gold Coin features Queen Elizabeth II in right-profile relief. Designed by Ian Rank-Broadley in 1998, this portrait shows Her Majesty wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara and has been widely used across Commonwealth coins.
Reverse
On the reverse, the 2013 Lunar Snake Gold Coin showcases a detailed snake coiled near grass and bamboo shoots. This design was the first by Perth Mint artist Ing Ing Jong for the Lunar Series, and she went on to design many more coins in the collection.
History
People born in a Water Snake year are said to have strong emotional depth and influence. The water element softens the Snakes typical intensity, allowing for more flexibility and insight in handling different situations.
