2026 Perth Mint Lunar Horse Gold Coin - 1oz
Struck from 1oz of 99.99% pure gold, this 2026 Year of the Horse coin from the Australian Lunar Series III pays tribute to the seventh animal in the lunar zodiac.
Following the snake, the horse symbolizes independence, charisma, and adventure. People born under its influence—in 2026, 2014, 2002, 1990, and every 12th year prior—are said to be passionate, spirited, and naturally charming, with an innate ability to inspire others.
The reverse of the coin features a powerful horse with raised hooves, embodying grace and strength, set against a backdrop of mountains and open grassland. The design also includes the Chinese character for “Horse,” the inscription “HORSE 2026,” and The Perth Mint’s “P” mintmark. The obverse showcases the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, along with the coin’s weight, fineness, and monetary denomination.
For added security, the coin incorporates an authentication feature—a micro-laser engraved letter on the reverse, visible only under magnification.
Each coin is housed in a protective acrylic capsule.
