Better be a good design like the series 1 horses. They will probably do a horse that is facing the other way like how they did the dragon. hahha
I'm year of the snake I remember when BB had pre orders for the 1 oz dragons for arround $40 something dollars each. So il probly be doing that this time arround,to avoid the Perth mint website at all costs,
You could just buy any silver / gold right now and sell it in September 2012 and buy some snakes. So that way who cares what the silver or gold price is
SILVER YEAR OF THE SNAKE HIGH RELIEF (Item 5) The design for this 2013 Australian Lunar Year of the Snake (1oz) silver coin consists of a representation of a snake entwined on a branch, surrounded by a pattern of lines. The coin includes the inscriptions 'Year of the Snake' along with the Pinyin pictograph pronounced 'sh' and meaning 'snake'.
Highly doubt any dealer or distributor would be foolish enough to consider presales of snakes - they will be subject to allocation anyway.
