2026 Australia 5 oz Silver Lunar Horse Proof (HR, w/Box & COA)
This impressive five-ounce silver coin from the Australian Lunar Series III celebrates the Year of the Horse. Struck with an ultra-pure silver content of 0.9999, the piece features a dramatic high-relief finish that brings its detailed artistry to life. The coin is issued as official Australian legal tender with a face value of eight dollars, and only 388 of these proof-quality pieces were produced. The reverse side, created by designer Ing Ing Jong, portrays a gentle mare alongside her young foal amidst a scenic backdrop of grassy fields and distant mountains. This side also displays the traditional Chinese character representing the horse, the designation 'HORSE 2026', and the 'P' mint mark indicating its origin from the Perth Mint. On the obverse, the coin bears the official effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, designed by Dan Thorne, surrounded by inscriptions detailing the weight, purity, metal type, and denomination.
