The first Year of the Horse coin release is here!

by Admin

With the Year of the Horse fast approaching, the first of the numismatic releases honouring this special time are upon us. YearoftheHorse.com.au is proud to announce the release of the 2014 $8 Year of the Horse Gold-Plated 5oz Silver Proof! Capturing the strength, movement and grace of this majestic animal, this 2014-dated release is certain to capture the attention of collectors worldwide.

Niue 2014 $8 Year Of The Horse 5oz Silver Proof With Selective Gold Plated

With a special emphasis on movement and grace, the reverse of this lunar zodiac coin is distinguished by a magnificent design of three horses in full-stride, complemented by a distinguished representation of the traditional Chinese character for the word ‘horse’.

According to the Lunar Zodiac tradition, those born in the Year of the Horse are often seen as generous, fun and decisive, with a relaxed attitude, a sharp mind and a penchant for travel.

Measuring an enormous 65mm in diameter, and struck from a full five troy ounces of .999 fine silver, this official $8 legal tender issue forms a truly magnificent tribute to the upcoming year in the Chinese Lunar Calendar. Selectively gold-plated, to highlight the powerful galloping horse motif, the coin is beautifully presented within a superbly crafted timber case, and is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity confirming the extremely exclusive nature of this memorable release. The worldwide mintage is strictly limited to a mere 500, which, given the quality of the strike and the strong lunar theme, means that this coin is set to be a galloping success!
