A letter from the General Manager
As we welcome a new year , it is with great pleasure that I introduce our latest collection of collector coins , released in celebration of the Lunar New Year .
With a deep understanding of the significance of the Lunar New Year in various cultures and communities , we ' ve taken special care to ensure that our latest collection celebrates the joyous spirit of this auspicious occasion . Each intricately designed coin invokes the wisdom and allure of the Year of the Snake .
A highlight for this month is the highly anticipated Year of the Snake Quadrant 2025 1oz Silver Proof Coloured Four-Coin Set , designed by Lucas Bowers . This coin set has consistently been a sell-out , making it a firm favourite among collectors and the perfect gift for those born in the Year of the Snake .
Adding to our excitement , we ' re pleased to announce our partnership with The Perth Zoo for an exhilarating Hide and Ssseek Trail to commemorate the Year of the Snake . We invite you to take part from 11 January to 11 February where five golden snakes will be hidden around the zoo , and another five at The Perth Mint . Each snake will bear a unique letter . Find all five in either location to assemble a mystery word and you stand a chance to WIN one of ten Australian Lunar Series III 2025 Year of the Snake 1oz Silver Proof Coloured Coins !
On behalf of our entire team , I would like to extend our warmest wishes for a prosperous and joyful year ahead . We appreciate your continued support and we ' re looking forward to making this an unforgettable year for all our coin enthusiasts .
