Offered for auction is the 2025 Lunar Year of the Snake coin, issued by the Pitcairn Islands in celebration of the Chinese zodiac. Struck in 1 oz of .999 fine silver, this coin features a refined Prooflike (PL) finish, combining mirror-like fields with frosted design elements for a striking visual effect. The reverse presents a graceful snake, intricately detailed and symbolizing wisdom, transformation, and intuition — core traits of those born under this zodiac sign. The clean, polished background adds brilliance to the snake’s textured form, creating the appearance of a classic proof despite being struck in Brilliant Uncirculated with prooflike quality. The obverse features the effigy of King Charles III, along with the year, purity, and face value. • Issuing Country: Pitcairn Islands • Year: 2025 • Theme: Lunar Zodiac – Year of the Snake • Weight: 1 troy ounce (31.1 g) • Metal: .999 fine silver • Finish: Prooflike (PL) – Brilliant Uncirculated with mirror-like fields • Face Value: 2 Dollars (NZD) • Diameter: Approx. 40 mm • Mintage: Limited edition (typically low for this series) • Condition: Uncirculated – Prooflike Note:This coin is of BU (Brilliant Uncirculated) or Prooflike quality, depending on the individual strike.
