The 2026 1/2 oz Perth Mint Lunar Year of the Horse Gold Coin is an exceptional release in the prestigious Australian Lunar Series III, honoring the Chinese zodiac. Struck from 99.99% pure gold, this limited-edition coin delivers both cultural artistry and investment security. Its half-ounce size provides investors with a substantial gold weight while remaining more affordable than the 1 oz flagship edition.
The reverse features a finely detailed horse in motion, symbolizing freedom, vitality, and success — attributes closely associated with those born under the Year of the Horse. The design also includes the Chinese character for “horse”, the inscription “HORSE 2026”, and The Perth Mint’s signature “P” mintmark, confirming authenticity.
The obverse presents the official effigy of H.M. King Charles III, designed by Dan Thorne. Surrounding inscriptions detail the coin’s weight, purity, denomination, and year of issue. Recognized as legal tender in Australia, the coin has a face value of 50 AUD, enhancing both its collectible and monetary significance.
The Year of the Horse is celebrated for qualities of strength, energy, and freedom — traits beautifully captured in this coin. The 1/2 oz size strikes a perfect balance for investors seeking more gold weight than fractional pieces while still being more cost-effective than the 1 oz version. Its limited mintage, cultural symbolism, and Perth Mint guarantee make it a standout choice for collectors and investors alike.
Launched in 1996, the Perth Mint’s Lunar Series is among the world’s most admired bullion programs. Now in its third cycle, the series celebrates the 12 animals of the Chinese zodiac with exceptional artistry and cultural significance. The 2026 Lunar Horse continues this rich tradition.
