The 2014 1/2 oz Silver Lunar Horse marks the seventh release in the Perth Mint's Lunar Series II, honoring those born in the Year of the Horse-a sign associated with strength, independence, and forward momentum. Struck from .999 fine silver and minted in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, this coin is as powerful in symbolism as it is in presentation.

The reverse showcases a single horse in full stride, mane flowing and hooves lifted, representing freedom, speed, and untamed spirit. The design's open field and graceful motion exemplify the artistic leap made in Series II.
