| Reverse description | Two horses are depicted standing in a naturalistic landscape setting, one grazing in the foreground and one standing upright behind, surrounded by pine foliage, rocks, and a meandering stream rendered in fine detail against a frosted field. The traditional Chinese character 馬 (Horse) is prominently displayed in the upper field. The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark appears to the right, and the legend 'Year of the Horse' is inscribed along the lower rim in serif lettering. The design is part of the Perth Mint's Lunar Series II. |

| Additional information |
Australia's Lunar Series II ran from 2008 through 2019, with Perth issuing these 10 oz silver pieces in strictly limited mintages — the 2014 Horse capped at 8,000 worldwide. The Horse holds particular commercial weight in Chinese numismatic markets, historically driving secondary premiums above comparable Lunar issues for other animals in the cycle.
