A Tribute to the Spirit of the Horse

In Chinese culture, the Horse is a symbol of freedom, ambition, and unwavering energy. As the story goes, the horse raced valiantly in the Jade Emperor’s celestial competition, nearly taking first place before being outwitted by the cunning snake. Though it finished seventh, the horse became a timeless emblem of grace under pressure and unstoppable determination.

Those born in the Year of the Horse (1918, 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014, and 2026) are said to embody optimism, independence, and enthusiasm — traits perfectly expressed through the artistry of this remarkable coin.
