In the obverse design of 2026 1 oz Silver Lunar Horse Coins, you’ll find a depiction of King Charles III. This first-generation portrait for Australian coins and other Commonwealth Nations in the Pacific was created by Dan Thorne. The design shows His Majesty in left-profile relief without a crown on his head.

For the reverse design of the 2026 Australian Silver Lunar Horse, you will find an image of two horses running along a riverbank. Running horses in Fire Horse artwork capture the essence of untamed energy and forward momentum central to this zodiac sign. In this particular issue in the Lunar Series III program, the horses on this side have been finished with a thin layer of 24-karat gold to create visual contrast.
