Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2001 Australian 50 cent Year of the Snake silver bullion coin is that it has a unique design feature. The snake depicted on the coin is not a traditional Chinese dragon, but rather a realistic representation of a serpent, which is a nod to the actual Year of the Snake celebrations in the Chinese calendar. This design choice adds a layer of authenticity to the coin and sets it apart from other coins in the series.
