Introduction

Tavex is delighted to present the 1oz Australian Lunar Year of the Horse Silver Coin, an impressive release from The Perth Mint’s world-renowned Lunar Series III. Celebrating the Horse, the seventh animal of the Chinese zodiac, this coin combines exceptional craftsmanship with 99.99% pure silver, making it a perfect choice for both investors and collectors.

Recognised as legal tender in Australia under the Australian Currency Act 1965, the 1oz Lunar Horse Silver Coin carries a face value of 1 Australian Dollar. In Chinese astrology, the Horse symbolises vitality, independence, and determination. People born in the Year of the Horse - 2026, 2014, 2002, 1990, 1978, 1966, and so on in 12-year cycles - are said to embody these qualities and are associated with the fire element.

Each coin also incorporates a micro-engraved security detail within the reverse design, detectable only under magnification. The obverse of the coin features the official effigy of His Majesty King Charles III.

History

The Perth Mint is a world distinguished mint and precious metals refiner that is located in the City of Perth, in Western Australia. The Perth Mint was founded in 1896 by Britain’s Royal Mint in response to the newly discovered gold deposits in Western Australia. Perth Mint’s task was to refine gold ore from the mines and to strike sovereign gold coins from the refined bullion. Between 1899 and 1931 the Pert Mint produced a considerable amount of gold sovereigns which were distributed in Australia and throughout the British Empire to be used as circulating currency. British control over Perth Mint was relinquished in 1971 to the Government of Western Australia which then assumed ownership of the mint. Today, the Perth Mint is hailed for the exceptional quality of its world class investment bullion coins like the Kookaburra and Koala silver coins, and the Lunar Series. The Perth Mint has been a member of the London Gold Market (predecessor of the LBMA) since 1934. The swan design, which is the Mint’s official assay stamp registered with the LBMA, is recognised internationally and was inspired by the Mint’s location in Perth, where the main river, the Swan, runs through the city. 

Mintage

The Perth Mint will produce no more than 300,000 1 oz silver coins. Production will cease when the mintage is fully sold or at the end of the series, whichever comes first. No mintage limit applies to 1 Kilo, 5oz, 2oz, 1/2oz silver coins. Production will take place only one year, after which The Perth Mint will declare each coin’s official mintage.
