1 Dollar - Charles III Year of the Snake: Quadrant 3/4

The "Year of the Snake" series sits within a long-running Lunar program that the Perth Mint has produced annually since 1996. The Snake is the sixth animal in the twelve-year cycle, making 2025 the first Snake year struck under Charles III's name following the transition from Elizabeth II after her death in September 2022. These quadrant coins — one of four in a set that assembles into a complete design — are a relatively recent Perth Mint commercial format, first introduced to drive collector set completion behavior.

Legal tender face value is nominal; the real market is entirely bullion-premium and collector-driven.
