Key Features

Investment-Grade Purity
Containing 1 troy ounce of 99.99% pure gold, the 2026 Lunar Horse coin meets the highest global bullion standards. Backed by the Perth Mint’s reputation for excellence, it provides investors with a trusted store of wealth and collectors with timeless prestige.

Limited Mintage
The 2026 Australian Lunar Horse 1 oz Gold Coin has a maximum mintage of only 30,000 pieces, enhancing its rarity and long-term value. This scarcity makes it one of the most desirable releases in the Lunar Series III, appealing to both gold investors and numismatists.

Majestic Lunar Design
The reverse showcases a majestic horse with flowing mane and raised hooves, set against a detailed landscape of grasslands and mountains. The design is accompanied by the Chinese character for Horse, the inscription HORSE 2026, and the Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark. The obverse features the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, along with weight, fineness, and denomination.

Advanced Security Features
To ensure authenticity, the reverse of the 1 oz coin incorporates a micro-engraved letter detectable only under magnification. This added protection makes counterfeiting significantly more difficult and provides investors with greater peace of mind.
