The obverse of the 2026 1/10 oz Proof Gold Lunar Horse features the first official effigy of King Charles III used on Australian coinage. Designed by Dan Thorne, the portrait appears in left-profile relief with a clean, modern presentation suited to current issues.

The reverse of the 2026 Proof Australian Gold Lunar Horse shows a stallion rising onto its hind legs. This pose highlights qualities often linked to Horse years—confidence, independence, and steady resolve—while recognizing the horse’s cultural importance in Chinese tradition.

Compared with slower-paced zodiac years like the Ox or the Snake, Horse years tend to emphasize movement and taking the next step. While the Tiger is associated with strong individual drive, the Horse pairs a sense of freedom with social connection, encouraging both personal milestones and community involvement. Travel and exploration are common themes, contrasting with more home-focused years, such as the Pig.

Each 2026 1/10 oz Proof Australian Gold Lunar Horse Coin comes in an individual capsule and is presented in a red Perth Mint display box. The outer shipper is themed for the Year of the Horse, and a Certificate of Authenticity is included. Perth Mint limits this presentation to 2,500 coins.
