The Australian Lunar Series III Collection
The Australian Lunar Series III is one of the world’s most successful annual bullion coin programs, prized for its rotating zodiac designs and consistent gold quality. Each release is produced for a single calendar year before giving way to the next zodiac theme, a structure that has built sustained demand among both collectors and investors since the series began. The 2026 release celebrates the Year of the Horse, symbolizing strength, freedom, determination, independence, confidence, and success in Chinese culture.
Year of the Horse Design
The reverse artwork presents a magnificent horse rearing on its hind legs before a mountainous landscape, paired with the Chinese character for “Horse,” the inscription “HORSE 2026,” and The Perth Mint’s iconic “P” mintmark. The horse’s powerful, dynamic stance captures the strength and confidence traditionally associated with this zodiac animal, while the sweeping landscape backdrop adds depth and scale that suit the larger canvas of the 2 oz coin.
The Obverse Portrait
The obverse features the official portrait of King Charles III by Dan Thorne, anchoring the coin’s artistic reverse within a globally recognized standard of bullion authenticity.
