Nice cultural artifact

A lovely way to celebrate the Lunar New Year. The artistic representation of the snake is elegant and not too aggressive. Would recommend.

Great addition to the second series

Consistent quality with the previous coins in this series. The only minor issue is that finding them in uncirculated condition at face value is getting harder.

Beautiful craftsmanship

The contrast between the outer ring and the inner core highlights the snake design beautifully. Very happy with this purchase.

Stunning Design for the Year of the Snake

The detail on the snake motif is incredible. The bimetallic finish gives it a premium feel despite being a circulating coin. A must-have for any series collector.
