The Perth Mint is pleased to present this beautifully crafted Baby Horse 2026 1/2oz Silver Proof Coloured Coin.

According to the lunar calendar, the Year of the Horse occurs between 17 February 2026 and 5 February 2027. In Chinese astrology, the horse symbolizes freedom, adventure, and a strong sense of self. Babies born during this time are said to be blessed with the horse’s independence, charisma, and love of adventure. They tend to be quick thinkers, sociable, and passionate about pursuing their goals, sometimes charging ahead with bold enthusiasm. With their vibrant personalities and magnetic charm, Horse-year babies are said to bring a lively spark to any family.

The coin’s reverse portrays a coloured representation of a happy young horse resting on grass adorned with delicate flowers and a dragonfly fluttering above. The Chinese character for ‘horse’, the inscription ‘YEAR OF THE HORSE’ and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark are also incorporated in the design. The coin’s weight, fineness, monetary denomination and 2026 year-date can be found on the coin’s obverse alongside Jody Clark’s effigy of His Majesty King Charles III.
