The Year of the Fire Horse represents one of the most intense and controversial combinations in the Chinese zodiac, occurring only once every sixty years when the Horse’s natural energy merges with the Fire element’s passionate intensity. The Fire Horse is one of five iterations aligning with the elements of the natural world: water, fire, wood, earth, and metal.
All 2026 10 oz Australian Gold Lunar Horse Coins are available in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and come with an individual acrylic capsule. The coins feature a security element on the reverse that consists of a letter that can only be viewed wtih the aid of magnification.
The obverse of the 2026 Australian Gold Lunar Horse features the first portrait of King Charles III used on Perth Mint’s Australian coins. This left-profile, crownless depiction was designed by Dan Thorne exclusively for the mint.
The reverse of the 2026 10 oz Gold Lunar Horse Coin shows a rearing stallion, captured mid-motion with its hooves raised. The animal is illustrated in a mountainous grassland setting, emphasizing its strength and vitality.
