The Perth Mint introduced in 1996 the Australian Lunar Gold Series. This was started with the Year of the Rat in 1996 and then each subsequent year, a new design was released featuring each of the twelve animals of the ancient Chinese Zodiac. The last release of this Lunar Series was the Pig in 2007. The coins were very popular and this lead the Perth Mint to release a second Lunar Gold Series (Lunar Series II) in 2008, after the first Lunar Series (Lunar Series I) was completed. The Coins were originally available in weights of 1 OZ, 1/4 OZ, 1/10 OZ and 1/20 OZ in bullion format, and a three coin proof set in numismatic format.

With the success of this series the bullion offerings as well as the numismatic offerings were extended to include many other weights, proofs and colored versions. The Lunar Series Coins have been subject to specific maximum mintages, thus making them in more demand and creating a premium for many of those coins. For sale is the 2001 Year of the Snake 1 OZ Gold Coin graded by PCGS as MS69. This is the sixth coin in this series and caries a full mintage of 30,000. The coin has the added PCGS Secure Service for added security. The photographs are of the actual coin that you will receive. Actual Declared Mintage: 30,000.

The obverse design features the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The reverse design depicts a snake curling around a tree branch. Those born between January 24, 2001 and February 11, 2002 are said to have been born in the Year of the Snake. Those people are believed to be: Wise, Independent, Analytical and Charming.
