The 2002 1 oz Silver Lunar Horse marks the seventh release in the prestigious Lunar Series I from the Perth Mint, honoring the Year of the Horse in the Chinese zodiac. Those born under this sign are said to embody energy, independence, and determination. Struck from .999 fine silver, this coin is part of one of the most respected lunar-themed bullion collections in the world.
Design Insight:
The reverse design captures a dynamic galloping horse, symbolizing freedom, progress, and success. The sense of movement in the imagery complements the horse's reputation as a driven and powerful animal in Chinese culture.
Collector Note:
The 2002 Lunar Horse is a must-have for both zodiac enthusiasts and series collectors. Its place in the mid-point of Lunar Series I, combined with its limited mintage and standout artwork, makes it a high-demand issue in the lunar bullion market.
