| Reverse description | A sinuous snake is depicted in high relief, its coiled body rendered in fine detail against a decorative background of traditional Chinese fret-pattern border elements, evoking an auspicious lunar new year aesthetic. The snake's head faces right with its tongue extended, conveying vitality and elegance. The Chinese cyclical year characters 癸巳, denoting the Year of the Snake in the sexagenary cycle, appear to the lower right of the central motif. The denomination $5 is inscribed in the lower field, while the legend 1/4 TROY OZ 999.9 FINE GOLD arcs along the upper rim, attesting to the coin's precious metal content. |
