The new issue of the Perth Mint's Australian Lunar Series III is dedicated to the Year of the Snake. The snake is the sixth animal in the Chinese zodiac calendar. The sixth issue of the 12-year Lunar III series in color presents a coiled, blue snake at the bottom, surrounded by hanging leaves. Also included in the design are the Chinese character for "snake", the inscription “SNAKE 2025” and the Perth Mint´s “P” mintmark. The reverse of the coin features a portrait of King Charles III designed by Dan Thorne. The coin's weight, fineness and denomination are also shown on this side.

The zodiac sign of the snake is said to have particularly strong intuition, wisdom, intelligence and good powers of observation. People born in the year of the snake are considered cultured, sensitive, philosophical and artistic. The Year of the Snake silver bullion coin in color is delivered in a protective coin capsule.
