2025 1/4 oz Year of the Snake Gold Coin - Lunar Series III
The Gold Lunar Series III offers a variety of gold coins in multiple sizes, ranging from a substantial 10 oz piece to the petite 1/20 oz option.
Among these, the 1/4 oz gold coin bridges the gap between the larger and smaller denominations. It features the same intricate design, legal tender status, and exceptional purity as the rest of the collection.
The series has a standard motif, the Chinese Lunar Calendar, which annually grants the series a different design, stamping the Astrological Sign of the Year.
As 2025 is the Year of the Snake, all gold coins showcase the Snake design. In addition, the Lunar Series III displays the effigy of King Charles III, the new leader of the British Commonwealth Community, for the first time.

The Year of the Snake
The Chinese Zodiac signs rotate annually, each year being represented by a specific sign.
In 2025, the Year of the Snake returns, having previously occurred in 2013, 2001, 1989, and earlier. People born in these years are often characterized by their mysterious, wise, and compassionate nature.
As the sixth sign in the zodiac, the Snake is considered the most intuitive and expected to bring abundant romance and excitement in 2025.
