In Chinese culture, the snake is the most enigmatic animal of the zodiac.

Natives of the Snake sign are rather secretive and cautious. They are renowned for their wise and calm nature.

According to legend, during the race to select the animals of the zodiac, the cunning serpent secretly slipped onto the horse's hoof and took sixth place. This story reflects his strategic intelligence.

Surrounded by plum blossom, a popular symbol in Chinese history, art, and lanterns, the snake depiction appeals to children. The inscription 'Year of the snake’ and the yeardate appear at the center of the coin. The ideogram of the snake appears below.

On the reverse side, all the animals of the Chinese zodiac are drawn in a cartoon-like way around the Ying and Yang symbol. A complete cycle of the Chinese zodiac will be composed from 2018 to 2029. Each of these twelve years features an animal from this calendar. The face value is visible in the center of the coin as well as the symbol "RF".

The Troll – When Coins Come to Life

The power of imagination can create entire worlds – and with a UV lamp that reveals hidden colours these worlds awaken right in the palm of your hand. This is what makes the Mythical Creatures series truly unique: black light technology brings each coin to life, immersing you in a magical realm where fantasy and reality meet.

The series begins with The Troll coin. On the front, the troll is rendered in vivid detail, almost as if it could step right out of the coin. A stone bridge, golden ornamentation and a mysterious four-toed footprint enhance the fairy-tale atmosphere. But the true magic reveals itself under UV light as colours burst into a brilliant glow, the word ‘Troll’ shines vividly and the creature seems to come to life before your eyes.

The reverse of the coin shows an intricately decorated key with the letter ‘F’ representing the first letter of the German name of the coin series. Stars shimmer all around it and the irregularly shaped letters look as if they have sprung from a magical world. The coin’s obverse reinforces this effect with its textured relief and whimsical lettering, giving the entire coin a magical appearance.
