A new coin.
The 2001 Australia 2 Dollars silver coin from the renowned Lunar Series I celebrates the Year of the Snake, a symbol of wisdom, intuition, and transformation in the Chinese zodiac. This impressive issue combines a larger denomination with an elegant proof finish, making it highly desirable for collectors of lunar and world silver coinage.
The reverse features a beautifully detailed snake coiled in a smooth, flowing composition. Its elongated body is covered in finely engraved scales, creating a striking texture and reflective contrast. The raised head and focused eye give the creature a lifelike presence. Beneath the snake are rounded fruits with a small leaf, adding natural harmony to the design. The Chinese character for “snake” appears to the right, while the date “2001” is placed to the left. Along the lower edge is the inscription “2 OZ 999 SILVER” with a small “P” mintmark. The entire design is framed by ornate decorative flourishes and a beaded border. The obverse displays a right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II wearing a crown, surrounded by the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “AUSTRALIA,” and “2 DOLLARS.”
In Chinese culture, the snake represents intelligence, elegance, and strategic thinking, often associated with calm strength and deep insight.
Struck in .999 fine silver with a proof finish and graded PCGS PR67, this coin offers exceptional detail and mirror-like surfaces. A refined addition to any Lunar Series collection and a meaningful collectible with strong symbolic appeal.
