| Reversbeschreibung | A dynamic depiction of a rearing horse rendered in high relief, set against a stylized brushstroke background evoking East Asian artistic tradition, as engraved by Wuon-Gean Ho. The animal is shown in a powerful three-quarter stance, its forelegs raised and mane suggested by flowing lines, conveying energy and movement. To the right of the horse, the Chinese character '馬' (mǎ, meaning 'horse') is incused in the field, providing an authentic cultural reference to the Lunar zodiac. The legend 'YEAR OF THE HORSE · 2014' is inscribed along the upper periphery in capital letters. The textured ground plane beneath the horse and the sweeping curved brushstroke behind it create a vivid sense of depth on the mirror-bright proof surface. |

The Lunar series struck by the Royal Mint for the British market launched in 2014 with this Horse issue, positioning the Mint in direct competition with the long-established Perth Mint lunar program. Britain's entry into the genre was notably late — Perth had been running its own lunar calendar series since 1996 — but the Royal Mint differentiated its product through the .9999 fineness standard rather than the more common .999 used elsewhere.
2014 was the Year of the Horse under the Chinese sexagenary cycle, the seventh animal in the twelve-year sequence.
