🐎 Year of the Horse – Melbourne Money Expo ANDA Special
Celebrate the spirit, strength, and elegance of the Chinese Lunar Year of the Horse with this exclusive 2026 Melbourne Money Expo ANDA Special 1oz Silver Coloured Coin, struck by The Perth Mint. Issued to mark the Melbourne Money Expo (7–8 February 2026), this special release blends cultural tradition with premium numismatic artistry.
According to Chinese legend, the Horse galloped fearlessly in the Great Race to determine the lunar zodiac order. Though momentarily startled by the clever snake, the Horse’s resilience carried it to seventh place—symbolising independence, determination, and vitality. Those born under the Horse sign (2026, 2014, 2002, 1990, and every 12th year) are believed to be charismatic, adventurous, and inspiring.
Struck from 1oz of pure silver and finished to Proof quality with colour, this coin is a beautiful tribute to the enduring symbolism of the Horse and a standout collectible from a major Australian coin show.
