Year of the Horse
According to the Chinese zodiac, those born in the Year of the Horse are said to be charismatic, adventurous, and independent — natural leaders who thrive on freedom and forward momentum. The horse ranks seventh in the lunar calendar cycle, a symbol of endurance and vitality celebrated across centuries.
The Perth Mint’s Lunar Series III continues this heritage with exceptional craftsmanship, blending artistry, precision, and cultural reverence into every release.
