| Obverse description | The fourth portrait effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley faces right, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara. The legend around the field reads 'ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA 1oz 999 SILVER 2014 1 DOLLAR', with the engraver's initials 'IRB' beneath the portrait. The design is rendered in a clean, unadorned style characteristic of late-twentieth and early-twenty-first century Commonwealth coinage. |

The "Year of the Horse" bullion series from the Perth Mint sits within a broader lunar program running since 1996, but the 2014 Horse is notable as the first full year of that cycle to benefit from the Mint's then-recently expanded coloring and selective plating technology applied to standard one-ounce issues. The "Red Flower Eagle" designation refers to a specific colorized variant within the Horse release — Perth issued multiple finish variants that year, and secondary market premiums between them diverged sharply within months of release, driven almost entirely by Chinese collector demand for the red colorway.
