Continuing its acclaimed Lunar Series III, The Perth Mint will release the Year of the Horse coins in 2026. The horse is the seventh animal in the 12-year Zodiac cycle, and the 2026 release corresponds to the Year of the Fire Horse. In total, each of the 12 Zodiac animals appears in five distinct elemental forms over the course of the series. Today, 2026 2 oz Australian Silver Lunar Horse Coins are available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
In Chinese astrology, people born in Horse years are traditionally characterized as energetic, independent, and freedom-loving. They are believed to be natural leaders with strong communication skills, adventurous spirits, and an innate desire to travel and explore. However, they can also be seen as impatient, stubborn, and sometimes prone to making hasty decisions.
All 2026 2 oz Australian Silver Lunar Horse Coins come in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. The coins are individually packaged in plastic capsules, with multiples of 100 coins shipped in a box. All coins feature a microscopic security element on the reverse.
On the obverse of the 2026 Australian Silver Lunar Horse, the mint presents King Charles III in a left-facing profile. The portrait shows His Majesty without a crown and is the first Australian coin effigy of Charles III. This design was created by artist Dan Thorne.
The reverse of the 2026 2 oz Silver Lunar Horse Coin features an image of a mare with her foal running through rich grasslands, framed by distant mountain peaks. Ing Ing Jong, who began designing lunar-themed pieces for The Perth Mint in 2013, is the artist behind this depiction.
