| Additional information |
China's lunar silver series shifted to .999 fineness beginning in 1995, distinguishing later issues from the .900 silver pieces of the 1980s. The 2002 Horse falls squarely in the post-handover period when the People's Bank was aggressively expanding its bullion and commemorative programs for international collector markets, with mintages kept deliberately low to sustain secondary market premiums.
