The Chinese Zodiac is a cycle of twelve years, with each year represented by an animal and its corresponding characteristics. In 2025, Lunar New Year falls on 29 January and begins the Year of the Snake - the sixth animal in the cycle.
In Chinese element theory, each sign has a corresponding element depending on the year. Specifically, 2025 is year of the Wood Snake and people born in this year are said to be creative and artistic. These coins are likely to appeal to precious metal investors and entry-level collectors in the domestic and international markets.
