The third installment of the Perth Mints Lunar Series started in 2020 with a notable update to the collection. While the previous seriesdating back to 1996focused only on gold and silver coins, Lunar Series III brought in platinum coins for the first time. Since then, collectors have been able to enjoy an annual 1 oz platinum release. Provident Metals now offers the 2026 Australian Lunar Horse 1 oz Platinum Coin for purchase online.
Highlights:
Each 2026 Australian Lunar Horse 1 oz Platinum Coin is offered in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and comes packaged in a plastic capsule. With a limited mintage of just 5,000 coins, it holds the lowest production cap among the annual releases in the Lunar Series III collection.
Obverse
The obverse of the 2026 Australian Lunar Horse Platinum Coin presents a left-profile portrait of King Charles III. This uncrowned image is part of the first-generation design from artist Dan Thorne and reflects His Majestys official likeness. The inscriptions here read CHARLES III, AUSTRALIA, 1 OZ 9995 PT, and 100 DOLLARS.
Reverse
On the reverse of the 2026 Lunar Horse 1 oz Platinum Coin, the design centers around a bold horse rearing up on its hind legs. The stallion appears in left-profile relief, its mane flowing and hooves lifted, with a single peak and rolling terrain behind it. Inscriptions here read HORSE, 2026, the P mint mark, and the Chinese symbol for the Horse.
History
Those born in Fire Horse years are said to be passionate, determined individuals with strong personalities. Their natural confidence and drive can lead to big achievements, though their fierce independence may sometimes result in impulsive choices or disagreements with authority.
