2013 Canada $5 Year of the Snake 1/10oz Pure Gold Coin (TAX Exempt)

According to the Chinese Zodiac, the year 2013 is ruled by the Snake. This coin celebrates the unique heritage and ancient culture of Chinese Canadians.

This coin is certified to be 99.99% pure gold with a weight of 3.13 grams and a diameter of 16 millimetres. The reverse image design by Canadian artist Aries Cheung centres on a stylized snake coiling upright, head at the top of the coin's polished field and tail at the bottom. The snake is engraved with a pattern of swirling motifs that recall the curling waves that approach the snake from the reverse image's left side. The snake is flanked, on its right, by the Chinese symbols for 'snake.' The reverse also features the word 'CANADA,' the date '2013,' and the face value of '5 DOLLARS.' The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by artist Susanna Blunt.
