Fire Horse — the first coin of the Lunar Years series

A year defined by movement and renewal

Across many cultures, the Lunar calendar reflects the rhythm of life through twelve animals, each carrying its own qualities. In 2026, the Fire Horse is associated with motion, inner strength and the drive to move forward.

In Lunar traditions, the Horse represents resilience, independence and clear direction. Combined with the Fire element, these traits become even more pronounced: determination, energy and readiness for change.

Historical meaning

For centuries, the Horse accompanied people in travel, work and battle. With time, it became a sign of freedom and the ability to overcome challenges.
The Fire Horse reflects these ideas, emphasising clarity and decisive action.

A key moment as inspiration

Stories describe the Fire Horse appearing at moments when direction is needed — not as a mythical figure, but as a reminder to move forward with purpose.
This idea became the foundation for the first coin of the Lunar Years series.

Design and symbolism

The Fire Horse coin presents this concept through strong forms and a balanced composition. The high-relief horse is shown in a dynamic, forward-oriented posture. Selective gilding highlights the fire element, while the antique finish reinforces depth and contrast.

A certified black diamond adds a focused accent to the design, reinforcing the idea of clear direction.

This is the first coin of the 12-part Lunar Years series, where each release will explore the symbolism of a different Lunar animal.
