No stranger to success, the 2013 Year of the Snake – Snake Family 1oz Silver Reverse Proof Tokelau Coin, lives up to and exceeds coin collectors’ expectations in this spectacular series. The snake is the Chinese astrological symbol that characterizes the personality traits of those born in a particular year, including 2013. The snake, a common symbol in every culture, is known for revitalization. The snake sheds its skin and the snake goes through rebirth and rejuvenation. There is a vibrant energy that comes from the snake, much like that way that the snakes itself lies coiled and ready to strike. You can see this electric energy on the reverse side of this silver coin. Shrouded by a background field of frosted silver, a mother snake lies coiled around her three hatching neolates, her body nesting them as they emerge from their shells in the grass. There are four more eggs about to hatch. The eggs and the snakelets themselves are frosted, providing a rich contrast to the polished reverse image of the mother. Look on the obverse side of the coin for a polished cameo of Queen Elizabeth II and the official badge of Tokelau. You’ll note that this coin is also legal tender in the Pacific Island of Tokelau. The 2013 Year of the Snake – Snake Family 1oz Silver Reverse Proof Tokelau Coin is a desirable coin for any silver coin collection.
