Limited to 888 Worldwide | Pre-Order – Dispatch Late January 2026
Celebrate the Year of the Horse with one of the most striking Lunar releases of 2026. This spectacular 1oz Gold-Plated Silver Black Proof Coin combines dramatic contrast, refined symbolism, and premium craftsmanship into a truly commanding collectible.
Struck from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver, enhanced with selective gold-plating, and finished in a deep Black Proof, this crown-sized coin captures the power, freedom, and high-spirited energy traditionally associated with the Horse in Chinese culture.
🐎 Symbolism of the Horse
In the Chinese lunar calendar, the Horse symbolises:
- Independence
- Energy
- Passion
- Adventure
- Charismatic leadership
Those born in 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014, and 2026 are said to embody these dynamic traits, making this coin a meaningful keepsake or Lunar New Year gift.
🎨 Striking Black Proof & Gold-Plated Design
The reverse features a powerful horse emerging from stylised clouds, symbolising strength and momentum. The horse is flanked by jasmine flowers, representing purity and good fortune.
A distinctive design element is the Chinese character for Horse (mǎ), which is struck directly into the coin rather than rendered in raised relief — a subtle but inspired artistic touch.
The dramatic Black Proof finish creates exceptional contrast against the gold-plated details, giving the design depth, elegance, and visual impact.
The obverse bears the Jody Clark effigy of King Charles III, confirming its official legal tender status.
