The Royal Australian Mint's 2026 Lunar Series Year of the Horse 50c Tetradecagon Coin celebrates the Year of the Fire Horse in the 60-year Chinese Zodiac cycle. The third release in the reimagined Tetradecagon Lunar Series, this coin features the distinctive 14-sided shape that sets it apart from standard Australian coins. The reverse depicts a free-spirited Lunar Horse against a flowing waterfall and stream — symbols of prosperity and harmony — with the obverse bearing the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Daniel Thorne.
Struck in cupro-nickel with an uncirculated finish, this official Australian 50c legal tender coin weighs 15.37g and measures 31.51mm across its unique tetradecagon form. Limited to a maximum mintage of 50,000, the coin is presented in an auspicious red presentation card, making it a meaningful Lunar New Year gift or a distinctive addition to any zodiac-themed collection.
