For an elegant presentation, your Lunar Year of the Horse coin is housed in a red lacquered wood case with a red outer box, evoking the Chinese New Year custom of gifting “lucky money” in a red envelope.
Obverse: The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
Reverse: The reverse design, by Canadian artist Jai Paek, honors the Year of the Horse through a folk-art inspired depiction of the Chinese zodiac animal. Intricate details on the Horse’s body, mane, and tail correspond to the ruling element for 2026: Fire. The Horse is accompanied by its lucky flower, jasmine, a traditional emblem of grace and good fortune, alongside a sunflower, symbolizing vitality and loyalty. Together, these elements channel the energy and movement of Fire, a symbol of transformation and renewal.
