A Century of Craftsmanship Meets Zodiac Tradition Since 1915, GR Reserve has remained family-owned, building over 100 years of refining expertise. Today, we bring that legacy directly to retail collectors. The 2026 Australia Lunar Series III – Year of the Horse 1/2 oz Silver Proof Coin honors the charm, strength, and independence of one of the most beloved animals in the Chinese zodiac. The Perth Mint strikes each coin with precision, blending cultural storytelling and exceptional silver craftsmanship.

Symbolism and Storytelling in Silver According to legend, the horse earned its place in the lunar calendar by finishing seventh in the emperor’s zodiac race. As a result, those born in the Year of the Horse—including 2026, 2014, 2002, and 1990—often show charisma, independence, and a love for adventure. On the reverse, the design features a galloping mare beside her foal. Towering mountains and grasslands form the backdrop. Additionally, the Chinese character for “Horse,” the inscription “HORSE 2026,” and The Perth Mint’s “P” mintmark complete the scene.
