Introduction
The 2026 1/2 oz Gold Perth Mint Lunar Horse is a standout release in Lunar Series III, offering exceptional purity, craftsmanship, and collectible appeal. Struck in .9999 fine gold and presented in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, this half-ounce coin delivers a bold and detailed interpretation of the Year of the Horse—ideal for both seasoned collectors and investors seeking premium fractional gold.
History
Inspired by the Chinese Zodiac, the Perth Mint’s Lunar Series began in 1996 and has grown into one of the world’s most respected bullion programs. Each year highlights a different zodiac symbol, and the Horse—associated with energy, independence, and perseverance—returns for 2026. Lunar Series III continues the Mint’s legacy of limited-mintage designs rooted in cultural heritage and exceptional minting standards.
Design
The obverse features the official effigy of King Charles III along with inscriptions for the coin’s weight, purity, denomination, and year of issue. The reverse showcases a dynamic and intricately detailed depiction of the 2026 lunar horse, complete with the Perth Mint’s signature “P” mintmark. The artistry and finish combine to create a visually striking addition to the Lunar series.
