Information about the Gold Lunar III Horse 1/4 oz PF – 2026

The latest edition of the Lunar III Series by The Perth Mint reveals the beauty of the Horse. A finely crafted design invites you to explore the world of Chinese mythology. The horse is the seventh sign in the twelve-year lunar calendar. This is based on the traditional story in which the Jade Emperor organized a race across a river to determine the order of the zodiac signs. Despite a brief setback caused by the snake, the horse reached seventh place, demonstrating unwavering spirit. Those born in 2026, 2014, 2002, 1990, 1978, and every twelfth year prior, under the Chinese sign of the Horse, are considered independent, charismatic, and adventurous. Passionate and spirited, they possess a natural aura and the ability to inspire others.

In addition to the classic bullion versions in standard denominations, The Perth Mint is releasing the proof version (Polished Plate) of the Lunar Series in gold, in 1 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz sizes. The Proof (PF) quality is highly sought-after by collectors and represents one of the most intricate coin minting techniques. As a special collector’s highlight, each coin comes in a protective capsule, along with a numbered certificate of authenticity and a premium red display case with gold engraving and magnetic closure. The box illustrations depict the story of the Great Race, which determined the order of the animals in the Chinese zodiac. This special gold coin is strictly limited to a worldwide mintage of only 3,500 pieces.

The Design of the Gold Coin

The center of the obverse features a majestic horse with a raised hoof, symbolizing strength and elegance. In the background, mountain landscapes and grasslands are depicted. Next to the design are the Chinese character for Horse "馬", the inscription "HORSE 2026", and the Perth Mint’s mintmark "P".

The reverse of the coin shows the effigy of King Charles III. Above are the inscriptions "CHARLES III" and "AUSTRALIA". Below, the weight "1/4 oz", the fineness "9999 Au", and the face value "25 DOLLARS" are displayed.
