Gold Five Grams Bar 2025 Argor-Heraeus Lunar Snake, Coin from Switzerland - detailed information

In Switzerland, apart from the government-owned Swissmint, there are also some private mints producing bullion which is not legal tender and is targeted at investors and not at coin collectors, such as this 5g gold piece.

This five-gram gold bar dedicated to the 2025 Chinese Lunar Year of the Snake is part of a range of bullion products by Argor-Heraeus marking the years of the Chinese Lunar Calendar.

In various Asian cultures, snakes often hold a complex symbolism, ranging from divine wisdom to potential danger. This duality is reflected in the characteristics associated with the Year of the Snake. The Year of the Snake is seen as a time when hidden truths may come to light, and when patience and keen observation can lead to profound insights. The year is also thought to favor those who are adaptable and able to navigate complex situations with subtlety and finesse.
