A coin with some oxides, a capsule (please, check photos).
The Australia 2 Dollars Year of the Snake 2001 silver coin is a remarkable release from the first Lunar Calendar series, honoring one of the most mysterious signs of the Chinese zodiac. Struck in proof quality silver, it features refined details and symbolic depth. The obverse shows the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, encircled by the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “AUSTRALIA,” and the denomination “2 DOLLARS.” The reverse depicts a coiled snake guarding its eggs, a powerful symbol of fertility, wisdom, and renewal. The year “2001” is placed to the left, while the Chinese character for “Snake” appears on the right. The entire design is framed with an ornate floral border, adding elegance to the composition. In Chinese culture, the Snake represents intelligence, charm, and insight, while the presence of eggs underscores themes of rebirth and continuity. A meaningful and beautifully executed piece, this coin remains a prized treasure among Lunar Series I and world silver collectors.
