Reverse

On the reverse of the 2026 1 oz Proof Royal Australian Mint Silver Year of the Horse Domed Coin, a galloping horse is shown as the central design element.

History

In Chinese astrology, the Fire Horse occurs once every 60 years and combines the lively nature of the Horse with the strong influence of the Fire element. This pairing is often associated with ambition, determination, and personal confidence. Individuals born under the Fire Horse sign are commonly thought to be independent thinkers with strong leadership tendencies and an active approach to life.
