THE LUNAR COLLECTION
Celebrating the Chinese Zodiac
In 2014, The Royal Mint united British and Chinese traditions to create the first official UK Lunar coins. The Shēngxiào Collection, named after the Chinese zodiac, is based on 12 animals that have their own unique characteristics and qualities.
Embrace the Year of the Snake with our Shēngxiào Collection, meticulously crafted to honour this revered symbol of strength and wisdom.
The collection includes twelve coins that are beautifully illustrated to represent the Chinese zodiac.
A beautiful fusion of British and Chinese culture, the perfect gift to commemorate such joyful celebrations.
Year of the Snake
A testament to the rich heritage of the Chinese zodiac, our Shēngxiào Collection continues with its twelfth instalment. In 2025, we celebrate the Year of the Snake, a symbol of wisdom and strength.
Year of the Dragon
Our Lunar Collection continues with a coin celebrating the Year of the Dragon. The only mythical animal in the Chinese zodiac, the dragon has become a proud national emblem.
