In the Chinese lunar calendar, the Year of the Horse represents energy, independence, and determination. When the Horse year aligns with the Fire element, it forms the Year of the Fire Horse, which appears only once every sixty years. People born during this year are often associated with strong personalities, ambition, and a drive to follow their own direction in life. The Fire element is believed to intensify the natural enthusiasm and adventurous spirit commonly linked to the Horse sign.

All 2026 1/10 oz Colorized Australian Gold Lunar Horse Coins come with individual protective capsules. The Perth Mint produced a limited mintage of only 20,000 coins and the release has already sold out at the mint. Each coin features selective onyx colorization on the horse to help highlight the design details.

On the obverse of the 2026 Colorized Australian Gold Lunar Horse Coin is the portrait of King Charles III. This effigy of His Majesty was introduced on Australian coinage in 2024 and was designed by artist Dan Thorne. The design presents the King in left-profile relief without a crown.

The reverse of the 2026 1/10 oz Colorized Gold Lunar Horse Coin displays a powerful horse standing upright on its hind legs. The horse is shown with onyx colorization, while the surrounding background includes tall grasses beneath the animal and a mountain peak rising in the distance. The design also includes the Perth Mint’s “P” mint mark.
