| Additional information |
The Perth Mint's Chinese Lunar series has run continuously since 1996, making it one of the longest-standing bullion programs targeting diaspora and collector markets across Southeast Asia. The Snake is considered among the more auspicious signs in the Chinese zodiac — associated with wisdom and financial acumen — which historically drives stronger secondary-market premiums for snake-year issues relative to less favored signs in the cycle.
The dual KM reference reflects a cataloging inconsistency between editions of the Krause standard, not a genuine die variety.
