Comment
Part of a lunar calendar series, 1998 - 2009Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Canadian 2001 $15 Elizabeth II (Year of the Snake) silver coin is that it features a unique snake design on its reverse side, which was created by Canadian artist and designer, Laurie McGaw. The snake is depicted in a spiral shape, curled around a stylized maple leaf, which is a symbol of Canada. The use of a snake in the design was meant to represent renewal and transformation, as well as to commemorate the Year of the Snake in the Chinese lunar calendar.
