Every year, the chinese calendar series presents a new animal. 2025 is the year of the serpent.

In Chinese culture, the snake is the most enigmatic animal of the zodiac.

Natives of the Snake sign are rather secretive and cautious. They are renowned for their wise and calm nature.

According to legend, during the race to select the animals of the zodiac, the cunning serpent secretly slipped onto the horse's hoof and took sixth place. This story reflects his strategic intelligence.

Right at the center of the obverse of the coin, a Snake undulates around a ring engraved with traditional Chinese motifs. The reptile is in motion, partially coiled around the ring and as if it were ready to escape from the borders of the coin, which are adorned with orchids, the flower associated with this sign. The sense of calm that emanates from the representation of the snake refers directly to what is one of the main characteristics of natives of this sign. The « Snake » ideogram appears on one of the curves of its body. The year 2025 and the inscription wich means « Year of the Snake » appear on the outline of the design.

The reverse shows all the animals of the Chinese zodiac. They are all featured on a screen surrounding a traditional Chinese temple door. A complete cycle of the Chinese zodiac will be composed from 2018 to 2029. Each of these twelve years therefore features an animal from this calendar. The face value is visible at the top left and the “RF” mention is on the door.
